    Whats the difference between Release and Debug.

    When I give out my program where should I get my program from? I think Release makes the most sense since I am "Releasing" it. But also Release's .exe is less size then Debug... So I don't know!

    As suggested by the name, the Debug version contains debug information, only normally of use while debugging . The release size is smaller, because it does not contain the debug information and is optimized (like all comments removed).
    Guess which version you should Release to the users?
