How do you run code in C++??

[CodeMonkey2000]

I'd recommend using scite as your text editor, and using command line to compile things. Once you are comfortable with command line, move on to makefiles. Since you are using C/C++, running with valgrind is helpful in finding memory leaks (but it's not perfect). Problem is that I think valgrind only works in linux. I'm not sure.

I assume you want to learn C/C++ to make games?
