When your first learning it's better to get up and running with as little fuss as possible. In that case, Bloodshed's Dev-C++ is the bomb! Even better, it uses MinGW.
Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand.
is it a C compiler or a C++ compiler or both?
Both. And Windows, and it supports most of POSIX.
