Just ordered a laptop that I'm gonna stuff Linux into and use for coding. Not sure what I can use for C++ on Linux. IDE's for other program languages would be helpful as well xD
I type in "sudo nano <program name>.cpp" (minus the <>). Then I use "g++ <program name>.cpp -o <program name>". The "-o <program name>" part is optional. If you don't put that, the program's name, by default, will become "a.out". If you want to change that before the compile(the g++ part), add the "-o <program name>" part. If you want to change the name after compile, I type in "mv <current program name> <desired program name>". When you want to execute the program, type "./<program name>".
Codeblocks >> http://www.codeblocks.org/
Very nice IDE to use in Linux, Windows or Mac. Loads of colour themes available as well.
Yea that is also a great IDE. I'm one of those people who think that you should begin programming by using the terminal. It follows the same thought process that programming requires, so why not use it? The terminal is not some horrible, difficult nightmare once you learn two or three commands. After those initial commands, it is a very shallow learning curve.
NICE!!! Codeblocks looks awesome I'm going to install that and play with it. Thank you!!!
Yeah I just got my laptop yesterday and put Debian in it. I've essentially spent the entire time in terminal. I used to have the same thought process for building websites when I used to purely build them on notepad, which I still do xD
You need to install g++ before attempting to compile any programs. sudo apt-get install g++
Sublime Text 2. Install g++ to compile.
you can use eclipse
