There's a ton of source code, a lot of tutorials, and most of all, it will make your Computer Kung-Fu a lot stronger.This will explain how to install Code::Blocks on Windows with the MinGW compiler, a tool that will turn the code into programs.You'll need to download MinGW - Minimalist GNU for Windows first: MinGW This is the top level directory containing Installer MinGW, MSYS and other directories. It's not easy, but it's not as hard as some people make it out to be. If you're going to learn programming or a second language, I would suggest learning C. It has compilers, a code editor, a debugger, project files and build system. Code::Blocks is oriented towards C, C++, and Fortran, but it can do other languages as well. This is geared towards beginners that want an awesome, free, open source cross-platform IDE that supports multiple compilers including GCC, Clang and Visual C++.

Code::Blocks is also available for Linux and Mac and has been ported to FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Solaris. It's pretty much the same on all Windows, with slight variants.
