[maskanio]

Im transfering colleges and want to continue working with C++ over the summer. I've been using the schools computers who use Linux and only have windows on my computer. Well I have a Linux virtual machine but lets just say thats out of the picture.

The compiler that Microsoft bundles with Visual Studio is one of the best for Windows. Here's a link:

As you know g++ is one of the best (or best) compiler for c++. Mingw is g++ for Windows. In Windows you can use The codeblock IDE (Open source). This IDE can be used with any compiler and you can download it with a mingw compiler in one package.
