RE: [Dev-C++] how do you install Borland free compiler?

[Ioannis V. <no...@ya...>]

In ANSI C++ cout is defined in the std namespace, which you can declare
there by using namespace std; declaration and use cout alone. But even
those for loops will not compile in VC++ 6. The compiler is *broken*. It
doesn't support almost at all templates, not the proper ANSI C++ header
files, e.t.c..

 The code that i sent you is ANSI C++, is not using any Borland C++
specific extensions.

But why would I bother with std::cout ? Why not just cout<< ?

I always see Borland-specific bits in books and tutorials, telling the
reader to do something different if they're using borland. Surely there
can't be too much difference between the compilers.
