Hello all! Well..like many thousand programmer-wanna-be who wants to make the next mega hit game but yet doesnt know a single about programming, I have decided to try to learn C++. Well..I got a problem. I *think* i will be programming for windows..but compiler. What compiler should I use if I program c++? Dont mind me..this might sound like a stupid question but I''m totally dumb at this. I would appreciate it if you can help me and maybe give me some links to free compilers(if there are any). Thanks in advance! Newbie Game Developer!
