I don't like to go to other sites to read the question...

I have the c++ for dummies book and i just installed Code::Blocks 13.12 because thats the one that the book uses. It says to go to settings and the compiler and select 3 boxes http://oi66.tinypic.com/1z3nqyd.jpg but when i try to check these boxes it only lets me select one language standard to follow http://oi68.tinypic.com/2m7uhhz.jpg how do you select both or do i only need one that will still work with the book, sorry if the answer is obvious, im still at the dummy level right now

1) The never standard incorporates the older one (in all important parts), so you can check the newest one that is selected in your book (because the newest can change things so that they are not compatible with the old one )
2) I recommend to use 16.01 The user interface has not changed (important to follow the book), but there are many bugfixes...

[EDIT:] c++11 is the newest standard in your book
