Other than what might be considered required materials,I'd think that any halfway decent school should have machines available with Visual Studio.

otherwise, follow omgbnetsux's advice and get an educational version of VS. Of course you could get one of the free compilers for your personal pc, but if you're going to be using VS in class it might be better to use the same thing at home, at least until you're comfortable with some c++ programming.
Fignuts!

devshed cpp is pretty good. somebody said something like "use visual studio start coding right" visual studio is for c# vb and vis C++ (integrated with windows)

if you are learning to program and dont want any extra bloat then i wouldnt recomment visual anything until you need it

get a borland c++ compiler, there has to be some in emule. and get some c++ book.. there's guides about the program everywhere

get one file from here on your emule.

btw if you're getting that class someone should have it (mates)

Veg:

To start out programming in C++, most compilers are fine. I have begun to read a few C++ books on my own spare time and have discovered that a large portion of books mention having or using Visual Studio. I've heard from one, however (Beginning C++ Game Programming, Michael Dawson), that Visual Studio 6 and below are bad choices because they do not implement the C++ language as well as Dev-C++ when it comes to the ISO standard. He did say, though, that Visual Studio.NET has no such problems. So here is my advice, then:

You should ask your teacher what he / she wants you to use. Most of the time, teachers have certain preferences or teaching methods that may involve the use of a specific compiler. If your teacher doesn't have anything like that, get Dev-C++ (you can find it easily on google, i won't bother posting a link). It is really handy and has several nice different editor options that let you see your code in whatever way you choose, like you can have a black background with comments being italicized and grey, strings are yellow, etc (this is my personal favorite, but there are quite a few others).

Now, the reason the majority of people would probably recommend getting Microsoft Visual C++ is because it supports many different types of files; definitely many more than the rest of them, and if you were to be hired at a company that was working on a big application, you would probably need the support of such files. They would probably use Visual Studio.NET, and so you need not fear about the language flaws because they aren't present in it.

- Hope I helped...

... I'm pretty sure he does.
Do you know what c++ is?

So because he throws darts at the course catelogue for classes to take, he automatically knows what that class is and its subjects are? Hes asking where to get c++. The question doesnt even make sense. C++ is a programming language, not a thing you go out and buy. What he wants is a compiler, and possibly some reading material. Because he thinks programming sounds neat since programmers made starcraft, firefox, and bwscanner. He'd like to be able to make those things too. Too bad he'll drop out after the first semester realising he has no idea what hes getting in to and the pre-requisite genius knowledge and love of computers/programming since childhood it takes to become a skilled programmer.


Your classic negatively charged posts crack me up. This was one of your better ones because it was funny and not related to politics.


haha
My life is so hard :(

if anyone has some spare time, maybe you can help me a bit

1)The factorial of a nonnegative integer n is written n! (pronounced “n factorial”) and is defined as follows:
n! = n * (n – 1) * (n - 2)* … * 1 (for values of n greater than 1)
and n! = 1 (for n = 0 or n=1)
For example, 5! = 5*4*3*2*1, which is 120. Use while structures in each of the following:
a) Write a program that reads a nonnegative integer and computes and prints its factorial.
b) Write a program that estimates the value of the mathematical constant e by using the formula:
e = 1 + 1/1! + 1/2! + 1/3! + …

c) Write a program that computes the value of ex by using the formula
e = 1 + x/1! + x2 /2! + x3 /3! + …


2)Calculate the value of π from the infinite series
π= 4 - 4/3 + 4 /5 - 4 /7 + 4 /8 - 4 /11+ …
Print a table that shows the value of π approximated by one term of this series, by two terms, by three terms, etc. How many terms of this series do you have to use before you first get 3.14? 3.141? 3.1415? 3.14159?

3)(Pythagorean Triples) A right triangle can have sides that are all integers. A set of three integer values for the sides of a right triangle is called a Pythagorean triple. These three sides must satisfy the relationship that the sum of the squares of two of the sides is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. Find all Pythagorean triples for side1, side2 and hypotenuse all no larger than 500. Use a triple-nested for-loop that tries all possibilities. This is an example of brute force computing. You will learn in more advanced computer-science courses that there are many interesting problems for which there is no known algorithmic approach other than sheer brute force.


4)A company pays its employees as managers (who receive a fixed weekly salary), hourly workers (who receive a fixed hourly wage for up to the first 40 hours they work and “time-and-a-half”-1.5 times their hourly wage -- for overtime hours worked), commission workers (who receive $250 plus 5.7% of their gross weekly sales), or pieceworkers (who receive a fixed amount of money per item for each of the items they produce-each pieceworker in this company works on only one type of item). Write a program to compute the weekly pay for each employee. You do not know the number of employees in advance. Each type of employee has its own pay code: Managers have pay-code 1, hourly workers have code 2, commission workers have code 3 and pieceworkers have code 4. Use a switch to compute each employee's pay according to that employee's pay code. Within the switch, prompt the user (i.e., the payroll clerk) to enter the appropriate facts your program needs to calculate each employee's pay according to that employee's pay code.


much thanks T_T

show us the source code you have written so far.

And i suggest you get on irc and hit up the c++ channels on dalnet and efnet, youre going to need them. Be prepared to be flamed beyond all recognition if you are only asking that they write the programs for you.

And this doesnt sound like beginners c++ to me, what exactly is the name of your class and what educational level are you at?
You fuck cows in retrospect

That's fairly advanced for beginners C++. None of them are particularily difficult though. How far have you gotten?

you should really try those problems on ur own first before asking for any help because programming is all about practice on a few basic concepts.

I only say this to prevent you from taking the easy way out as your obviously just starting to learn programming and you wont go far in this subject by having someone else do the work.

The coding is simple but the class is probably linked to a advanced math program.

bah for the factorial you just can do a simple non efficient thing like

import java.io.*;
class Factorial {
public static int factorial(int x){
int result = 1;
for(int i=1; i<=x;i++)
result = result * i;
return result;
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException{

BufferedReader reader= new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String line;
line = reader.readLine();
int input = Integer.parseInt(line);
int result =factorial(input);
System.out.println(""+result);
}
}

this is java just translate to C++ -_- this will work no need for any API just plain code -.-; to understand it well

And this class is not a class that teaches concepts about efficiency, memory management, Objects management, design patterns, etc. It looks like a course linked with a math class.
