"Hello World"

[Yitzu]

Hi, my name its Yitzu, or Patoto whether u like to call me, and im a real NOOB at C++. I've been looking through the tutorials and stuff, and i found them pretty neat, they explain nice and give good examples. I have got some experience using "Basic" or "DarkBasic". But the reason i created this post is to ask, which is the emulator or compiler used for C++? Or at least the one the ppl of this forum use?
Thx ;)

From what I've seen, people prefer Visual Studio C++, Code::Blocks, Turbo C++, as well as DevC++.

I used DevC++ for quite a while but recently moved to VSC++ for better support and once you figure out how to work it, it is pretty simple.

DevC++ was very very easy to use though, if you want to start at that to gain experience.

EDIT: also, DevC++ is crazy old. Don't use it.

Don't use Turbo C++ or Dev-C++ they are really old

Don't use Visual Studio C++, it has a strange interpretation of the standard at times. I prefer Code::Blocks or NetBeans myself.

I disagree. It's likely the best IDE available.

The debugging interface sure kicks the crap out of C::B (not that C::B is bad, just VS is that much better.

So does GCC. You'd be hard pressed to find any compiler that's 100% standards compliant.

Both VS and GCC come pretty close, but neither are perfect.

As you can see, many people prefer different compilers, it's best to use what you are comfortable with, then move on to another when need be.
