Since many of us on the list are programmers of one sort or another and
interested in numerical analysis also of one sort or another, maybe someone
would care to offer an opinion as to which is the better C++ compiler in the
Windows environment these days and why. Which compiler is used in the majority
of off-the-shelf software. Which has fewer or less serious bugs, etc. I use a
lot of matrix operations on huge (3 mil +) 2-d arrays and some compilers
really get lost. Which seems to be the most reliable.
I am not ignoring the unix platform for their excellent foundation for this
language - it's just that I don't use it. Obviously Mr. Woltman uses a Windows
compiler for Prime95. If I am going to spend big bucks here - which one has
less headaches.
