Help a newb!
O.K. I want to learn C++. I found a couple of online tuts. but I can't find a compiler that is one file. Yeah by the way, Im on a Mac. I have a PC but its my dads oldschool P3 running on Windows 98 but its not hooked up to the web; although I could bring it donwstairs and get in online. Which would be better to do update the PC or use my Mac. Keep in mind I also need a compiler and any good tut. site.

Download Xcode from Apple's website.
Personally, I usually prefer the jEdit editor as well, but Xcode has it's own fine editor.
*edit* And standard C++ tutorials are independent of platform. Obviously, anything that is Win32 you will not be able to do. However, Mac has it's own APIs.
Cheers

A mac? You didn't tell us what operating system.
If it's OS X, g++ should be on there, no?

Yeah OS X 10.3.9 thanks for the help.

If I were you, I would drag the PC downstairs because I hate programming on MAC. The PC puts your program in one file, where as the MAC will put a ton of folders and junk that the program will not run without. I also like Dev C++. If you want to stick with the MAC, if you have Panther I think it is, xCode comes with it. Just use the finder to find it.
Good Luck,
