How Do u See if a code works

i think this should go here i was reading on this site that a good free complier is devc++ program i downloaded it and put the code treenef put it in new- source file and put the code in and saved it how can i see it plz help

it keeps saying complile and i do then i go run it said complile plz help

First you need to compile and build it.

Or simply press this button ringed here in red.

i did that and it saids that i dont have a program in the bin file and it still keeps saying not complied
here it is
my ccp

could be a prob with where u put your dev folder. Or a problem with the actual download.

Worst comes to worst, remove dev++ from your system and do a fresh download of the latest version, and just follow the instructions. Other than that I'm not to sure.

how do u run the program is it when u do a project using hello world put the code that u did and then click complile and then run if it is this is not working can u send me you cpp file plz thanmks 4 your help your cool

1.Open dev it should reside in my computer in your c:drive
2. click file.
3.click new
4.click source file.
5.paste your code in there
6.click execute
7.click compile and run
8.Save as 'test' or whatever

And that should be it.
If that doesn't work then it could be a problem with your actual download. Rather than trying to find out which file may be corrupt it may be better just to do a fresh download.

But like i said, it's hard to tell what the problem is.

i got a picture of what it said when i open a cpp file up

Ok it would seem, the makefile is missing or corrupt as opposed to you not knowing how to compile and run a program.

Your best bet would be to remove your existing dev++. Do this from control panel and then download a fresh version of dev++
Try this and see what happens.

When you download it, don't change the directory or anything. Just leave it as the default.

ok i am downloading a new one now

Make sure you download the full setup that includes the MinGW compiler. That's somewhere around a 9MB download.

i downloaded the wrong one i downloaded the 2nd one so i downloaded now the first one and did what u said treenef and it work that u soo much 4 you help on getting the dev to work
