- hello,
-
- I just downloaded the shareware version of the pacific msdos c compiler...
- and well I like it except that I run the program initially in screen:25
- mode.
-
- now the problem...when I run a program from w/in ppd it exits...runs the
- program...then comes back IN 50 LINE mode, which my monitor cannot handle.
- why is it doing this. And if anyone knows from using the program how to fix
- it or configure it somehow from WITHIN the program; it would be greatly
- appreciated?
-
- while I'm here one more question....
-
- I just picked up the c language about 1 week ago, by reading "Teach yourself
- C in 21 days - Premium edition" by SAMS. and well I thought it was easy to
- understand a well written. Of course I did it in less then 21 days, and well
- I think I have a very good grasp of concepts...points, structures etc...(of
- course there is fuzziness, and urge to run to the book); any ways
- what are your suggestion for further reading, or tasks that I should be
- doing to build up my skills. I have been trying to take simple program ideas
- and lay them out on paper and then program them. I would however like
- more reading tho. OH also :) should I move up to c++ BEFORE being an expert
- C programmer...or stick w/ c for a while?
-
- thanx
