I wanted to know what is the current standard C compiler being used by companies. I know of the following compilers and don’t understand which one to use for learning purposes.

  1. Turbo C
  2. Borland C
  3. GCC
  4. DJGPP

I am learning C right now and referring to the K&R book.

Can anyone please guide me to which compiler to use?

    GCC is going to have the best support of the choices you’ve listed for the simple reason that it comes standard in GNU and is the target of Linux. It’s very unlikely any organization would use the other three beyond possibly supporting some horrible legacy application.

    Other C compilers you might look into include:

    • Clang: an up-and-comer, particularly for BSD and Mac OS X
    • Visual Studio Express: for Windows programming
    • Intel Compiler Suite: very high performance; costs money
    • Portland Group: another high-performance commercial compiler; used typically for supercomputers
    • PathScale: yet another commercial high-performance compiler
