I have decided to go with C+ programing, but what stuff do I need for it?

I want to make a game that works on windows or some sort of program so I decided to learn C+, but I am a complete beginner. I don't know any thing about programing. I need to know what stuff( that I can get for free) I need and what tutorials( that I can get for free) for beginners there are.

is called C++, and if it is your first programing language, you should know that it requires some patience to get the idea...


tutorials?


you could just type c++ tutorial in google, there are TONS of them, here is one

a compiler and a "program" to write your code in: Dev C++, is pretty simple and easy to use:

Reply:trust me, it will take you a good long while before you can be game programming in c++





and c++ is not generally recomended as a first language, nor is windows programming





freecomputerbooks.com is good for stuff to read, ruby.com is a great place to learn a useful language good for starting, google.com is a great place to find everything, dev c++ is a great c++ compiler, and microsoft visual c++ can be useful at times also





so many pple think they will start programming becuz it seems like itd be cool to make games and then they try and cant get it and quit, but good luck anyways lol
Reply:You need a compiler. I strongly recommend Microsoft Visual Studio 2005. Or you can use gcc or Dev C++.





Also, it is better to go to a bookstore and pick a good book to practice your programming with. Some good books are "Learning how to program in C++" by deitel or "C++ Primer."
Reply:you can try Robert Lafore's book on C++ it is very easy. Of course a TC++/BC++ compiler VC++ also fine.
