Hi all,

I am planning on taking this course in the next several weeks and I have 3 questions:
1. Can I get through this course by using an online compiler? I ask because I use my work's laptop mainly now, and installing VB would require submitting a ticket.
2. If not, is Visual Studio the way to go?
3. What laptop/laptop specs do you recommend for the best programming experience?

Thanks!

Web based compilers will not be adequate to properly develop in C++. You'll need a physical compiler. VS is strongly recommended for the course.
