I am trying to self learn c++ and the first program mentioned in my book is

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout << "c++ is better than c.\n ";
return 0;
}

In which of the digit's cd/dvd, the program which can execute this code is given?

^^what you need is a compiler.If you are on linux then g++ is preinstalled anf you can use it through terminal.In windows you need to download and install a compiler(most comes as IDEs,IDE:integrated develpoment environment,its just a compiler+a good editor in simple terms).I would suggest devc++.

I dont know about digit's cd\dvd having compilers.

devc++ is 13.5mb,so it will take sometime on your slow connection but I assure you it will be worth it.

@utsav:turbo c++?you gotta be kidding me.

Unless you are going to a class where they are teaching with Turbo C++, I would recommend that you avoid Turbo C++ because it has a lot of non-standard functions... You will end up creating programs that will not work easily with others...

Dev C++ is a very good alternative for learning... It has a simple interface that will help you get started...
