NET beans and DevC ARE NOT Compilers but just IDE



by visiting to following one of site you can download a free compiler but remember if you are looking for an IDE then download

Bunches of them exist, without knowing what hardware/OS you need, I'd recommend GCC since it can run on many many platforms.



gcc.gnu.org

There are lots of free C compilers. In fact the oldest maintained and most widely used, GCC, is free. There are even several desktop front-ends (called IDEs or Integrated debugging editors) for it. Of course widely used means it's used for everything from supercomputers to smartphones. The desktop -- and in particular the Windows Desktop is not a focus of it and while it's the compiler for several IDEs it remains a command-line program.

My favorite for the Windows desktop is Digital Mars C. I happen to like the command line, which it uses: There is an IDE available for it for fifty bucks, but I mainly use Linux anyhow -- for ALL my computing.

Anyhow, Windows has Visual C++ Express, and there are other options so I'm linking to the three most reliable lists of free compilers below. Read the comments on all three pages then choose and try them out.
