Depends, would you like to focus on a certain type of development (GUI vs Console)

Are you on windows? Linux? Some weird ass OS we've never heard of?

Me personally I'd suggest Notepad++ and g++ but I'm a bit of a glutton for punishment.

G++ - is GNU C++ compiler.
GCC - is GNU C compiler.

Also you can try other text editors like:
Sublime Text
Vim
Emacs
or IDEs:
CLion
Visual Studio
Dev++
and many others

What OS you use?
This is my opinion- use a text writer (I use VIM) and a compiler (let's say, GCC), Of course I'm using linux but if you use windows you can use Notepad++ or something.
In addition to that you got IDE's like code:blocks and such.

good luck :)

I use windows 8 as my primary OS but I run Ubuntu sometimes to test certain programs on VM.
For C++ I like to use visual studio 2010, I really like it due to the reason that is easy to use and that it supports more than one language and for my text editor I like to use notepad++.

Some of what you listed are not just text-editors but full blown IDE's so that list is a bit misleading.

Why 2010? You're not going to get a lot of the useful C++11/14 feature sets using version 2010.

Visual Studio on Windows.
Nano on Linux.


And if you use some derpy OS no one has ever heard of, use the default text editor I guess.

Or use vim, which should be there for any OS you would want to use.

Visual studio is an IDE and nano is a text editor, and they are very different.
if you decided to use an CLI text editor I would prefer vim because of it's costumization options and plugins but if you want an IDE in linux you should go for CODE:BLOCKS or something...

I realize that, but they are both very nice for coding purposes.


And yeah, I'm not very familier with any IDE's in Linux, so I just said Nano.

Ok, so I started with the C88 standard; so I would suggest to grab your nuts, get off windows, install linux, use what ever text editor you find you enjoy. I like gedit, cause it's simple, and has a very wide variety of code highlighting, and learn to compile with GNU compiler (gcc,g++), it's simple to switch from C/C++, to fortran, or what ever language you wanna go with...
If you are going to code C or C++ on a microshit system, or IDE; you have just cut your program's speed by about 60%, and increased the probability of vulnerable code by about 180%.
