The first thing you need to learn before even programming, is searching... if you would have searched something like bloodshed, or dev-cpp or even just the version number of 4.9.9.2 you would have seen that a fair number of us use it almost exclusivly.
It will be good if you want to learn programming...Quote:

It's a good idea to use whatever the author recommends.
Compilers/IDEs are not the easiest things to learn. And, in the beginning, you are trying to learn a programming language, how to use your IDE, and what programing is all about.
For the same reason, I always recommend that students taking their first programming class use the same compiler as the instructor and their fellow students.
