Hello people! I am Dr. Jones, from Brazil. I have programmed for +/- 1 year in QB4.5, one more year in VB5, and = since some time ago I try to begin programming in C/C++, Assembly or = Pascal. I think Assembly will have to wait until I got to learn one of = the other two, so C/C++ and Pascal remain. I have tried some Pascal compilers (like Turbo Pascal and Free Pascal), = but I have never got the compilers even to run a single "Hello, world!" = program. As for the C/C++ compilers, I have been more lucky. I have = tried Turbo C, Miracle C, Quincy (a nice C INTERPRETER, not a compiler), = and the great DJGPP, with RHIDE. I have got all them to work, and all = these are very good. (Although Turbo C was some strange to use, and = Miracle C seemed to be corrupted and did not work properly). And the = wonderful LCC-Win32 and V. But Dev-Cpp is the best and easiest to use = C/C++ compiler/IDE I've ever tried! Although I think DJGPP or Watcom (I = have never got this last, however) are more "powerful", or = "professional", and LCC-Win32 and V can (in my opinion) replace even = Microsoft Visual C, with its ability to create Windows GUI programs, no = one of them is easier to use than Dev-Cpp. As a new user to C/C++, this = is the best for me. And I see day by day that it is not just an "easy" = system to use, I feel more and more that I am going to use it = definitely. P. S.: Do you know of any tutor/sample program that can guide a VB = programmer into the great world of C/C++? I know up to now just the basic commands... |
