i have read alot of threads on this but i need peoples advice. i was thginking of using c ++, but do i need a compeller* thingy? i am a real newbie when it comes to programing, exept for html. thanks
I personally like C++ its a good language to learn on and its pretty widely used. yes you do need a compiler; there are free ones you can download, my favorite is DevC++ it actually works better than Microsofts.
Bloodshed Dev-C++ is a full-featured Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for the C/C++ programming language. It uses Mingw port of GCC (GNU Compiler Collection) as it's compiler. Dev-C++ can also be used in combination with Cygwin or any other GCC based compiler.
I would say start using Dev C++. It has a tutorial built right into it, which is how I learned it. Although if you know HTML it won't help you any bit when learning C/C++. Because I know HTML and it didn't help worth a darn...
