hey

hey i have a question yes im an idiot but hey im just a kid im only 12 so my uncle suggested i learn C++ to get a jump start in university but what do i use it for?
...creating programs, maybe? C++ is a language in which one can create programs. You'll need a compiler to do that, though.

Free compiler:

You want the one marked C++.

Do NOT download Dev-C++ (which is an IDE + Compiler, like Visual Studio Express). It's obsolete.

I really suggest a good C++ book. It will give you a good in-depth look at the language.

Now, please take what I am about to say as friendly advice:

1. Please, use proper grammar in your posts, capitalize all the necessary words and structure your sentences properly. It will help you so much in the long-run with your reputation on this forum.

2. There is no reason to call yourself and idiot because you don't know the language(we ALL had to learn it), or because you are a kid.

PS: I am a twelve year old that knows C++.
