    hey what you can do just find .h files in your computer with find utility if on linux just find or locate or on windows just press windows + F

    and then in your turbo C id give set the include path

    Unless you're running DOS or Windows 3.x, you might also consider installing a compiler written in this millennium, like Visual C++ or gcc.

    It is not really backwards; it is more like several kilometres behind the start line.

If they do, I ask them to find the smallest example that exhibits the problem and send me that. Mostly, they then find the error themselves. "Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    **Hey buddy!**

    I'm an old Turbo C/C++ fan, from way back in the days. For small console projects, I still use it a lot.

    What version did you get, and did you get your set up sorted out?

    After you get into programming more than student assignments, be sure to step up to a newer compiler like MS Visual C Express (free), or something comparable. Turbo C is great for learning, because everything is pretty straight forward and it lets you concentrate on the C language.

    But it is a 32 or 64 bit world now, and 16 bit compilers, no matter how good, will never meet that need.
