char> >' (or there is no acceptable conversion)":
Code:
I think the problem is that my compiler is too old. I'm using Microsoft Visual C++, but the copyright dates in the About were 1994-1998. What compiler would you guys suggest? I need one that can be downloaded for free online that is fairly easy to use, as I'm not going to be doing any uber-advanced programming anytime soon.
