Can anyone suggest a good compiler?
So, I took a starting-level c++ course at a local college, and we used "quincy", which has worked fine so far with one notable drawback: it doesn't display line numbers. This is ok when you're doing a hello world program or something, but when you're trying to do something that's seriously long, it can become inconvenient. Can anyone suggest a better free compiler to use?
Thank you. 2 votes for visual C++ is enough to get me to try it.
By the way, does logic in C++ run from left to right or right to left? I mean, if I say
if (a || b && c)
{
count << "yes";
}
will it output "yes" if a or (b and c) is true or if (a or b) and c is true?
And is there a way to use parentheses to change this?

1) It's dependent on operator precedence. IIRC && has a higher precedence so:
is the same as
2) Yes, you can force certain expressions to be evaluated first by using parentheses like normal.
a || b && cis the same as
a || (b && x)2) Yes, you can force certain expressions to be evaluated first by using parentheses like normal.
