Fancy writing a computer program in the C programming language? The Turbo C 2.01 compiler has been restored to the Free C/C++ Compilers and Interpreters page. I'm not sure when it got removed from my list, but I think it was around the time Borland sold its development tools, and the new owners started removing the free compiler suites that Borland used to provide. Anyway, it's back. For those not familiar with Turbo C, it was a famous C compiler known for its fast compilation, built-in graphics library and IDE (development environment).
On the other hand, if you prefer a more up-to-date tool so that you can write computer programs for a modern system like Windows, Mac OS X, Linux (etc), take a look at the other free C or C++ compilers on the page. There are now 38 of them listed, so chances are that you should be able to find something you like.
