Go to the principal or dean and explain to him that your instructor is handing out assignments without teaching the material, and he's forcing you to use a compiler that is 20 years old. You cannot learn adequately from a 20 year old compiler nor an instructor that won't teach what's needed for an assignment.

well.... I reckon you oughtta get to looking up the <graphics.h> library in your Turbo C compiler.

yeaaahhh ... i don't think that's really a good idea.

you're responsible for learning the material, regardless of how lousy you want people to think the instructor is. dont get me wrong, i don't doubt that you have lousy instructors. But judging from the majority of your peers that parade through here over the years, lousy instructors is obviously endemic to your country's educational system. Complaining about it will only get you marked as a troublemaker.

as for your crap Turbo C compiler, I'm certain the dean and the administration above him are responsible for foisting it upon you. I believe the highest echelon of your national university system is receiving kickbacks... er, i mean "incentives" ... from the Borland Corporation to perpetuate their shittiness all over the Second World.

anyhow, you got a program due tomorrow. so dont just stand there, do something.\\\

I kind of doubt that. If they are getting kickbacks, they'd be passing out at least Borland 2006, not Turbo 3.0.

I'm sure the crappy compilers are being used because that's what the instructor learned on and he's never bothered to keep up with the industry (he's in academia after all) and just keeps plodding along thinking Borland is still king of the compilers. They are just lazy SOBs.
