RE: [Dev-C++] (no subject)

Alright, I'll explain this for you really quick.

When you include in C++, you include by filename.

So, when the code says #include <iostream>, the <> means it's a system
header in a standard directory like /usr/include/c++ or /usr/include for C
headers on UNIX systems. On Windows the directories are a little "weird" but
Dev-C++ takes care of it for you. This is different from Java, where the
import keyword pulls stuff in by the name of the classes / packages you
want. Personally, I have many more problems with the Java approach than the
C++ approach, but that's just me. Your mileage may vary.

Now, to include code of your own, place it in the same directory as the main
file, and use "" instead of <>. For example, if you called the subten
function's file subten.c, you would need #include "subten.c". Also, the
compiler needs you to name files as .c or .cpp according to the kind of code
you put in them, or it might get confused and try to compile some C++ as C,
which will not usually work. If in doubt, call it a .cpp since C will
compile as C++ 98/100 times.

Hope this helps,
Matt
