Even after starting C, most books (or links) only say what we should do. But the user(for me example) remains ignorant about the "DO NOTS", and by mistake, might indulge into the wrong programming practices. [URL="http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/aix/library/au-hook_duttaC.html"]This[/URL] link will surely help.

Use [URL="http://sourceforge.net/projects/codeblocks/"]Code::Blocks [/URL] No problems and no hassles!

I've tried to make a [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deque"]DEQUE[/URL] program. My book on data structures (Seymour Lipschutz) doesn't have an algorithm on DEQUES.

I hate bringing up old threads but I was thinking about this but did not have the courage of asking a MOD but this seems like a good opportunity. So, can i make a list of Common malpractices of C?

There you go [CODE]#include <iostream.h> #include <conio.h> int i; int a[10]; int main() { cout<<"\n\n\tEnter The 10 Numbers : \n"; for(i=0;i<10;i++) { cout<<"\t"; cin>>a[i]; } cout<<"\n\n\tThe 10 Numbers In Reverse : \n\t"; for(i=9;i>=0;i--) { cout<<a[i]<<"\t"; } return 0; }[/CODE]

Hello vanan4u These are your errors 1) You have declared the return type of main as void but returned an integer. It is recommended to use int main().
