yeah, whatever that means


I still don't get the logic of using something like TC when better compilers are available. I am forced to use TC in my college for almost everything and i hate it. But things are changing and a lot of colleges are providing students with linux and gcc. I hope, in the next few years, some sense will prevail and other colleges will follow suit.
As far as I know in the colleges/universities where they use TC or similar DOS based compilers. This is solely due to the reason that the students are Electrical/Mechanical major, and they need to write code for micro controllers etc. Which TC+DOS make very easy. So simple to kindle with serial/parallel ports. GCC will be a mess to use in this case. And where it really matters the students doing Computer Science major, they use MSVC. I used it. 4 years back.
