This tutorial is intended only for Windows users.
<\/span>First, you need to go to the Cygwin web:
http:\/
You’ll be directed to its home page, scroll down and you’ll see a title which says: <\/span>Current Cygwin DLL version. Click on one of the links for installation to download the installer depending on your computer processing unit. If yours is 32 bits click on this link: <\/font>setup-x86.exe or, if it’s 64, click on this one: setup-x86_64.exe
Then double-click on the installer you just downloaded from the folder you use to save your downloads. Now, just click next in every window that pops up until the window Cygwin Setup – Choose Download Site(s) appears. There, select any site, it doesn’t matter, and click add and then click next. Wait until the green bar loads and click next again. The next window shows all the packages you can install, just select two of them gcc-g++ and make. To select them use the filter located in the left corner above and type the name of the packages. Type gcc-g++ and select the second skip from top to bottom and the two n\/a will become squares, the left one will be crosed. Now type make in the filter and now do the same thing but now select the second from bottom to top. Then click next and wait for the green bars to load completely. Finally click finish and you are ready to start programming! <\/p>\n
