    hmm..

    Hell, change compiler dude
    QuickC is so old, try downloading one free, Dev-C++ is a nice option, look here: http://www.cprogramming.com/other.html

    Hmm, you did write:
    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>

    C isn't C++.
    Dev-C++ compile as well C sources, you should try it.

    Hmm, in the include directory of your compiler, can you see the stdio file?

    NO!!!


    C++ is OOP (Object Oriented Programming) language

    e.g.:

    class Car
    {
    public:
    void drive()
    {
    ..........
    }
    .
    .
    .
    .

    };

    You can write: Car.drive()
    or a class Man: Man.run()...........

    I'm not really the fan of C, cause I code in C++
    And often it's hard for me to code in C / for C compilers, cause there no Objects....



    Try to get the path/dir of the file:
    e.g.:
    write:
    #include <C:/Program/microsoft/quickc/include/stdio.h>

    Don't know ur dir, so u have to look....

    So is something wrong with your compiler, try using Dev-C++, it's for free and works fine

    No it isn't. Read this .
    QuickC is old (kinda remembers me of QuickBasic), take a more
    modern and free compiler, Dev++ or Boreland.
    <stdio.h> is probably not a standard on your compiler.

    Ok, You did install the compiler correctly? if you're sure on that, your compiler isn't working, try in other ways like #include "stdio.h".

    Hmm, is just this header that don't work, or other libs, don't work too?

    If u have older compilers, like TPasal, QuickBasic or QuickC

    There are often files in the dir, where the compiler is installed, that u can config...

    Something like config, edit.....????
    There u can set the include dir, the lib dir.......

    That'd be a nasty operation since stdio.h connects to alot
    other sources, you could at best just go here
    or here

    >C++ is OOP (Object Oriented Programming) language

    C++ is a hybrid language, it allows you to program in a procedural way.

    >yes I include #include <stdio.h> and it came up with the error
    >message.

    What is the exact error message it gives? Can you post the error message the compiler gives?
