I have installed Xcode and the command line tools from the Mac Developers website, which I have read a few times is a prerequisite. I also installed the MacPorts program. In terminal:
sudo port install gcc48
sudo port select -set gcc mp-gcc48
All the above went smoothly until I type:
hash gcc
When I press enter, I get the following error message:
-bash: hash: gcc: not found
I am at a loss and do not know how to proceed to successfully install gcc on my Mac (which is running Mac OS X 10.9.1).
Much obliged to any suggestions and or alternatives to installing the gcc

You might be better off installing gcc from homebrew than Macports.
There're are about 6 versions of gcc available from this package manager. See http://brew.sh for more details on the homebrew tools. Also this thread has more details on gcc and homebrew: How do I install GCC via Homebrew? Lastly, the gcc error in your shell is similar to this thread: I installed Xcode but I still don't have gcc in my terminal
