From where should i download programming languages like c,c++,java for self practise.?

You do not download programming languages, you download a compiler for the language. You need to create the source file for the programming language in a text file. The text files could have extensions like '.java', '.c', '.cpp', '.c++', etc


After saving the text file, you need to compile it using the compiler you have downloaded. This usually is done on the command line.


Then depending on which programming language you use, c, c++, or java, you can either type the name of the program in the command line, or you need to type 'java %26lt;filename%26gt;' to run it.





An Integrated Development Environment (IDE) usually gives you all the tools for creating, compiling and running your programs, as well as debugging, finding errors.





There is a free IDE for java called NetBeans.


GNU provides a free command line compiler for c and c++.


There are many varieties of the GNU compiler, some built into IDEs. Best to search the net, have a look around, and decide on one if you want.


Borland and Microsoft also provide free compilers. Borlands is a command line, and I am not sure whether the Microsoft is a command line, or IDE.


Borland and Microsoft also offer IDEs that you have to pay for.





You should be able to search for all these through Yahoo.

You can download the java JDK from java.sun.com





Get C++ (and C) by downloading the bloodshed DEV-C++ devlopement system (somes with it). Very good system.
Reply:THere are a *lot* of different locations where you can get free programming tools and resources. Check out http://www.freeprogrammingresources.com/ for links to a number of these resources, categorized by language.
Reply:for java, there's the jdk (java development kit) somewhat at http://java.sun.com/. tutorials for learning are there, too.





the jdk won't give you a graphical integrated development environment though, so I recommend that you download netbeans at http://www.netbeans.info/downloads/downl... (you don't need to give an email address if you don't want to).


at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.... you can find netbeans and the jdk bundled in one package (if you're happy with english) - otherwise you'll have to download the jdk there, too..





for c and c++, dev-c++ might be an option. you can find it at http://www.bloodshed.net/dev/devcpp.html... with the download at http://mesh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourcefor... (linked from the same page)
