- madamelic 9y agoNot even Python works well on Windows. I was constantly having to tweak and install things to make libraries compile without error. The second I went to OS X or Ubuntu, everything worked out of the box.
- sigjuice 9y agoMy take on learning C is that you just need a C compiler and your programs are simple enough that you do not need anything from the system besides reading and writing file handles.
- bananicorn 9y agoThat's actually what I did on my previous PC, (with cygwin and mingw), but cross-compiling was kind of a pain in the ass, so I'm really looking forward to the native linux tools for handling that :)
