    Getting Started

    I am new to C++. Actually, if you consider the only programming I have done is Qbasic in college, you probably would say I am new to programming. I will have to teach C++, and I do not have time to take a course to learn the program before I have to teach the unit. I have found web sites with tutorials, but none of these tell me the basic question of "what do I need (type of compiler, software??) to get started." Can any of you help?

    I can tell by your postings that ya'll are definitely experts in the language. Can anyone find time to help this novice learner? Please!!

      one of the better programs out there for beginning writing code is dev c++. Its a full blown IDE, i used it in my intro courses in my first year at university and liked it because of its simplicity. its fairly straight forward and runs on windows and linux and uses something similar to the gnu c compiler.

      check it out here.

          hi
          i can also suggest the HOW TO PROGRAM/5 EDITION, written by the DEITEL associates. i'm also doing c++ programming first year and i'm really enjoying it.

              use turboc++ compiler (IDE) from borland international. it's the most used compiler used in introdutory courses on c and c++ in uneversities and colleges around the world.
              and regarding book u should refer to an introduction to c++ by TMH publication.
