What do you mean download C++? If you mean a C++ compiler, www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html . If you mean where can you find C++ code, www.1cplusplusstreet.com is a good place to start.

there is a difference python is an interpreted language and c++ is a compiled language. so for c++ all you need to do is compile it once and it should run no matter what. but with python you need that interpreter to interpret the code everytime you run the program so get the devcpp compiler it is great for windows if you are looking for linux it should probably already be installed its called g++ or gcc good luck

I know this is for C, but check it anyway. The site makes a connection to C++ code.

http://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html is a good place to get a free C++ compiler and IDE, as far as learning the language you should get abook, there is no good place to learn it online that I could find. The one I used is called "C++ for the absolute beginner" and it comes highly recommended from me.

I use Dev-C++ from bloodshed a lot and recommend it too. The help file however sucks! I downloaded the helpfile for the Borland C++ compiler from Borland, that one is real good, and has lots of actual code samples in it.

if you are an absolute beginner you shouldnt startd leaning c++ right off thte bat. you should go into a more resonable stage, such as python, i have jst started learning python, everyone who i have talked to said that is teh best desicion someone couls make in where to start, c++ is too high of a level to start right there, you should go with python, then learn other languages such as c++

I have to disagree there. The first language I ever learned was C, and that wasn't too difficult. It might be slightly more difficult than learning Python, but nothing that can't be accomlished with a little time and dedication. It's not hard at all.
