Well. I never thought i'd see the day i was ever programming. Anyways, for some reason my networking course (Im doin' the Diploma now) involves three programming modules.
VB, which i must say is a sh*t.
C, & Java. Now, VB i obviously cant do on a mac, so i did all that in class. but C & Java, HAHA! Java i know is not a problem, i can simply run the compiled thingo (i have no idea what java is compiled into except those weird .class & .jar files) in the applet launcher.
But what about C? i know i can do the coding basically anywhere, send the source home or to tafe via email, and compile it, but what can i use to compile it here at home, and if i compile it using say, the GNU command-line compiler, will it work in X, as an app with a GUI? can someone gimme some idea of what i should have, and what i need, and anything else at all i need to know?
Thanks.
