Need help finding C compiler for windows?

Question

Does anyone know a free C compiler for windows that doesn't need some nix environment? It would be great if you could give me link and explain what to do so I don't get lost :)

Answer 1

I use Dev C++ for work. It's great for the x86 platforms.

Answer 2

There's two major standards compliant compilers out there (for Windows). The first is Microsoft's own compiler, which is Visual C++. It costs quite a bit of money, but you can get a scaled down version for free.

The other is MinGW. MinGW is nothing but a windows port of GCC, and GCC is the compiler of choice for Linux and other *NIX related systems.
