Hey I bought a book to learn C but it says I need a compiler. Does anyone know a free good compiler for newbees?
Thanks in advance!

depends on what type of computer/os you have...
try
www.compilers.net
they have links to free C compilers you can download. I'm partial to DJGPP.
You can get a good C-compiler and a debugger from

You can make DOS- and WIN-programs but only in standard-C
Kind regards

You could also get a book (although you just got one) that has a demo compiler. Not the best, but good to learn on.

Hi,
One of the best c-compiler is the gnu-gcc-compiler which is actually for Linux. But you can get a good portation for DOS on the website of DJ-Delorie. There´s also a good c++-compiler.
If you need gcc for Linux, try a search for example with google.

When I close my eyes nobody can see me...
DJGPP is fine, but it is too big, try to get TC, from Borland, it's OK.

no, life is nice, just a girl fooling around, alcohol fixes everything.
OH, I now have a High School Diploma and need of ron (drink)
What's your budget? If there isn't one or it really doesn't matter than go for MSVC++6.0 Enterprise. Everything you need. It's a programmer's (Windows programmer) home. You can do everything.

Well, I asked the same question and most people thought free was bad and some (I mean Garfield) just tell you to go empty your pockets and help microsoft control the world. I personally do not like delorie because it is Dos based and the only reason i like turbo c++ is because you can edit Wolfenstien 3d but I chose to use both Borland c++ 5.2 and Dev C++ (from bloodshed.net).
So far they both work well.
BY THE WAY: What book did you buy?

The first C book was Beginning C by: Ivor Horton.
