There are a number of different compilers available to you, depending on your computer's operating system and requirements. For Windows, there is:
- Cygwin is
a large collection of GNU and Open Source tools which provide functionality similar to a Linux distribution on Windows.
- For example, my installation came with the base and CDT (C Development Tools) but no debugger. Seems a bit absurd to have and IDE w/ out a default debugger but so it goes. For my installation I had to install Eclipse and than install GDB ( A Debugger) and then tell Eclipse where the debugger is by setting the path variable to the debugger.

All of these are versions of the GNU Compiler Collection (gcc). Whether using Windows, Mac, or Linux, so long as the compiler is gcc compatible, you should have no problem writing and executing programs for this course. Eclipse, of course, runs on Windows, Macs, and Linux.
Linux installations normally come with gcc installed. For Windows we recommend the installation of some version of Cygwin.
NOTE: the compiler collection installation folder must not have spaces in its name. For Windows, Cygwin recommends installing it in C:cygwin64. After installation the C:cygwin64bin must be added to the system path. See the installation instructions at: How to Install and Configure Cygwin in Windows Environment.
NOTE: the Cygwin installation process on Windows can take a long time!
