We use Borland C++ Version 5.5 and pcGrasp software in class. Students can check this software out of the library in either CD or zip disk form and install it on their home computer free of charge. I do not recommend downloading the software from the Internet because many of the files in our version have been modified to fit the assignments in our packets. However, there are many C++ compilers available to you.
