I downloaded code blocks,installed it, and it works great.
I'm Using it for PLAYING with C++ code because I believe it
is a more versatile programming language and maybe I can finally
break away from the old Qbasic.
For days now I have been searching the internet to find a simple
answer to a simple programming question.
Learning to program in black and white is no fun! I Like to program
in color! This should be at the beginning of every learning "how to"
program using c++ manual.
I found what I was looking for. The c++ header files to
include in my code. With code blocks it did not compile with the
errors that the header files cannot be found. After a couple more
days of searching through the code blocks include files so I don't
have to reinvent the wheel and looking for another solution I thought
maybe someone would be nice enough to answer a simple Question.
"Is there such an include file for the code blocks version of C++?"
I realize that I will have to eventually examine the contents
of every include file that comes with the compiler of my choice
to increase my programming abilities. To save time for now I
joined this code blocks forum and then read that I can't ask
a code blocks related programming question on this code blocks forum?
Maybe I misunderstood what I read on this site. I realize that a
programming student asking for help is a problem. But in my case I'm
not asking for code, I'm trying to save time by just asking if
with code blocks is there a header file where the colors have already
been defined.
If this post is out of line.... I apologize
Well whatever the case may be "Thank You" for taking the time to
read this.
