If i download microsoft visual C , does it run/compile C code? (C code not visual C)?

Visual C isn't a different language. The visual part refers to the fact that the IDE does things in a "visual" way ie place buttons on forms with point and click rather than coding positions manually.





It does come with some microsoft written extensions included. But if you code using the standards, it will compile with no problems.

yes
Reply:Yes. If you confine your coding to standard C, it will compile it as standard C. Most Microsoft extensions are flagged in the documentation.





Hope that answers your question.
Reply:If you use visual studio to create standard c programs then you start by creating a project as a console project.
