The following links will take you to the Bloodshed website where you can download a free C++ compiler.  The newest version (5.0 Beta) is ANSI compliant and will follow the book the closest.  You can use the 4.0 version, but any example code from the book or my website will need to be modified to work in this version.  The 5.0 version also includes a real time debugger which will be handy in this and any future class that requires programming in C++.  You should download the  Dev-C++ 5.0 beta 9.2 (4.9.9.2) (9.0 MB) with Mingw/GCC 3.4.2 version.
 

GNU C++ Compiler

This is the compiler that is used by most of the students in this class.  All the examples both in the book and on my website are compatible with this version.
