The way you talk indeed suggests you are a noob.
Could you please clarify what you want?

Are you looking for any of the following?:
- a compiler
- a hello world program
- a tutorial
yes I am vary noob

i guess i am asking what programs do i need to write and run C++ programming

know what i need just what to start learning C++ code and thought experimenting would be the best way

sorry hope this helps you help me
What you need is a C++ Compiler, many of which include an IDE (Integrated Devlopment Environment) to write the code in (otherwise you'll need a text editor).
See http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/windows/2573/ for a few options on Windows.
Once you have that, try working through the tutorial on this site, http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/ which introduces a lot of hte features and syntax.
Then pick a (simple) problem and try to solve it - if you need more help, post and someone is likely to try and help:-)
iam downloading Eclipse classic that should be good for now right.
eclipse is compatible with the tutorials right?

much obliged, thanks man
Do you know a compiler that would work for a Mac?
@magewish go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Macintosh_software at the bottom there are "Developer tools and IDEs". There are some compilers and IDEs there.
You might want to take a look at this post also:

do i need a compiler?
I am having trouble with the hello world tutorial in eclipse are they compatible???
Eclipse doesn't have a built in c++ compiler. You have to download and add one.
In this link you will fnd many free compilers that you can use.
