The first step in learning any programming language is to have the required software installed in the system. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install C/GCC compiler in Windows.
Although, you may choose any basic text editor such as notepad for writing and editing source code of C, we recommend choosing one of the editors below.
codeblocks-17.12mingw-setup.exe

That’s all for installing C/GCC compiler in Windows. We are ready now to explore coding features of C Programming.
