Re: [Dev-C++] opening files in c

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

There are no include file called "cstdio.h"

In older c++, the file was called "stdlib.h" and was actually part of the
C standard. In the current C++ standard, the file is called "cstdlib",
i.e. no ".h" extension. If you look at the answer you got before, it shows
<cstdlib>, i.e. your like should look like:

#include <cstdlib>
