I have just started a C programming class. My plans are to go from
that, to a C++ next semester (the college I am attending requires C
before you go to C++, oh well, no harm done since they are similar).
My question is this: Which compiler programs are best. We are
using Turbo C++ at school. Eventually, I want to work with windows
(Visual C++) as well as C and C++. Are there any compiler packages
that will handle all three (I know that Turbo C++ will do both C and
C++, but the package we have at school will not process Visual.) I
would rather only purchase one compiler if possible (The least
expensive would help also, but I don't want to loose efficiency to the
lower priced packages.)
Thanks in advance for any advice...
John
