I'm starting the Information System course and would like to know which compiler is best to use because the teacher has passed several and did not specify which one is better?

Use GNU that runs on Mac OS X, Linux, Free BSD and Windows (the MinGW implementation is the easiest to use). You can use the Eclipse IDE that has a distribution for C and C ++ developers called CDT - click the < a download of the IDE is available at http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-cc-developers/keplersr2> Eclipse C / C ++ IDE for Kepler SR2
See the note below that specifies how to make Eclipse CDT recognize the MinGW installation
CDT will find your MinGW install automatically if you install it into C: \ MinGW and add the C: \ MinGW \ bin directory to your PATH , or set the MINGW_HOME environment variable to the install location.
The MinGW can be found here: MinGW Download
After downloading and running setup you can run the command below to install the C ++ compiler
mingw-get install gcc
mingw-get
is the MinGW package manager and makes it easy for the developer to set up the right versions of the development tools.
It depends on several factors, such as what platform and processor do you want? Considering that you want to compile for PC, if you are on Linux, I would surely indicate g ++ for C ++ and gcc for C, now on Windows MinGW presents the best cost benefit, since it is free, and would be g ++ for Windows, the compiler from Microsoft Visual C ++, note that both the IDE and the compiler calls Visual C ++ generates a more optimized code however it is paid, so for me the MinGW is better as it has a great cost benefit, and solves all problems .
