    Hey all, I'm trying to learn C++. I was wondering what all the includes are and all their functions. Also, I was wondering if coding for Windows is different than programing for Linux or anyother OS. Thanks

    It would take a lot of time to list all the header files and their functions. Have you ever thought of checking out MSDN, either hard copy or online?

    yeah the headers and the includes pretty much make up the meat of language, so your like asking us to explain the language to you

    Thanks to the standard library console programming is the same for all systems.

    GUI programming depends on the API you're using. GTK+ is different from the WinAPI - very different but at the same time very similar.
    But the principle of GUI programming is the same: You get sent messages by the window manager or windowing system and you respond to them by executing program logic and calling back into the windowing system and window manager.
