Need A Good C Compiler

Yeah, I'm starting to learn C so then I can move on to do C like languages, such as Sourcepawn, etc. I need a C compiler to read the programs that I type from my book so things can be done more effectively. I need a link to one that is easy to install and is not for like windows ME.

I wouldn't recommend Visual Studio as your first to use. Do code blocks first it's beginner friendly. Also, you don't really need to learn C before SourcePawn. I learned Sourcepawn first and then went to C++.

 

Don't use Dev-C++ since it is very deprecated and out-of-date compared to many current IDEs.

I can partially agree to that. Depending on your learning style, you may want to start C first then evolve to may higher-level languages like C++ C# or something like that.

 

It also depends on what path you want to go. I would say go C -> C++ /C# / VBnet / Java -> whatever you want after

IF you plan only ot program for games, then eh do your C training then SourcePawn.

 

However, some people learn better by going from a high level programming language (like SourcePawn) to a lower one like C or Assembly.

Technically C isn't that low but it is pretty low on the chain of programming languages.

Well I mean the reason I'm doing C first mainly is because I have a book that is easier to understand (and more accurate) than online tutorials and there's no book on sourcepawn lol
