    What Compilier?

    About a week ago I got a major virus, but I formatted the drive and its gone now. I knew some c++, but I wasnt very good at it. So im going to start over. If anyone knows some good sites for tutorials please help. I also need a compilier.
    Thanks

    Try cprogramming.com. They have tutorials and a list of compilers.

    I don't believe there is such a compiler as Modern C++. The only thing google could find was an Intel compiler for Linux, that probably is not actually called, "Modern C++". Look at the list of compilers on this site's homepage. That's what just about everybody here uses.

    Modern C++ isn't a compiler, it's what people call code that conforms to the current ISO standard rather than code that relies on older (usually deprecated) features and C-style techniques (which are generally seen as bad style in C++). It's C++ that's "modern", get it? There are plenty of compilers that support the latest standard well enough for your needs, and Dev-C++ is one of them.

    KaibaFan321: keep using dev-c++ because there is nothing wrong with it. i have Borland C Builder 6 and Visual Studio 6 but i use dev-c++ more. as long as Mingw32 is updated then dev-c++ will be "modern"
