I have been reading lots of different C++ books and they all use different compilers, this is a problem because I have just purchased Microsoft Visual C++ 2008, any suggestions to getting around this?
Thanks in advance

hi wezil, java script is cool isn't it? although you will get the same thing from yahoo answer service as you get in those books we all have a different opinion of what C++ but allow me to explain it tjhe way i learned it C:\ is where your system is at loike your folder if you don't believe me then go to my computer double click you see windows ah-huh that is your system if you try to adjust them you get cannot adjust without authorization so now you have to try to get an authurization but now what is C++ it is an extension of windows C;\ this started back in the 1930's by the electric company so computers was getting into the groove so this is the way it goes but let's use an example like a chair we are building. my program.java-compiler-my program.class-java VM 01000101- my program which is the finish product thats boss. good luck hope i was helpful to you

I would suggest downloading the Bloodshed Dev C++ IDE as it is free and Visual C++ 2008 is a little different than the standard C++ as it is a .NET language. Otherwise you need to find a book specifically for Visual C++ 2008. I too am just beginning to learn C++ and I personally like Dev C++ more.

They all will usually compile the same way, although you mostly paid for the Visual C++ 'IDE' not the compiler as you can get that for free with the Express Edition of the Studio. And C++ code is C++ code, the compilers will in the end result in the same product in 99% of occurrences.
Me myself, I normally just use the GNU Compiler Collection (gcc and g++) to compile programs.

C++ is a language, so no matter what IDE or compiler you use, it should end up the same.

Starting off will all be command line anyway and use the same instructions for executing code. It only really matters when you start using libraries and making GUIs. At that point in time, get a .NET programming book. (**cough** And switch to C#)

Your can stick to this plan: a million. learn math and physics properly. 2. purchase a beginner e book approximately computing gadget shape. examine it. 3. elect programming language to be taught: C++ for abode windows video games, C# for XBox video games, Java for Android video games, purpose-C for iOs video games, or AS3/html5 for mini internet-video games,,, there are distinctive tutorials available for those language. And remember: sport programming isn't as relaxing as sport enjoying.
