IDLE C and C++

To start using C++, you need a text editor to write code and a compiler to translate it. Popular integrated development environments (IDEs) like Code::Blocks provide both and make it easy to edit, compile and debug C++ programs. This tutorial will use Code::Blocks, which is free to download and installs both the editor and compiler with a single file.

C++ Get Started

To start using C++, you need two things:

 A text editor, like Notepad, to write C++ code


 A compiler, like GCC, to translate the C++ code into a language that
the computer will understand

There are many text editors and compilers to choose from. In this tutorial, we
will use an IDE (see below).

C++ Install IDE


An IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is used to edit AND compile
the code.

Popular IDE's include Code::Blocks, Eclipse, and Visual Studio. These are all
free, and they can be used to both edit and debug C++ code.

Note: Web-based IDE's can work as well, but functionality is limited.

We will use Code::Blocks in our tutorial, which we believe is a good place to


start.

You can find the latest version of Codeblocks


at http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads/26. Download the mingw-
setup.exe file, which will install the text editor with a compiler.
