After navigating to the Dev-C++ page on SourceForge, Alex clicked on the download link for the 64-bit version of Dev-C++ 5.11. The file, named devcpp_5.11_setup.exe , began to download. Alex waited patiently as the file downloaded, and then he ran the installer.
Alex had used Dev-C++ before, but it was a while ago, and he couldn't recall the exact version he had downloaded. He decided to search for the latest version, which was 5.11, and specifically looked for a 64-bit version since his computer ran on a 64-bit operating system.
It was a typical Tuesday morning for Alex, a computer science student. He had a project due soon and needed to write a C++ program to simulate a banking system. As he sat in front of his computer, he realized he didn't have a suitable Integrated Development Environment (IDE) installed. That's when he remembered Dev-C++, a free and popular IDE for C and C++ programming.
The IDE opened, and Alex was greeted with a familiar interface. He created a new project, wrote his C++ code, and compiled it without any issues. The program ran smoothly, simulating a basic banking system.
From that day on, Alex made sure to keep Dev-C++ updated and used it for all his C++ programming needs. He was grateful for the ease of use and the fact that it was free and open-source.
Alex was relieved that he had successfully downloaded and installed Dev-C++ 5.11 on his 64-bit system. He spent the rest of the day working on his project, and with Dev-C++ by his side, he was able to complete it efficiently.
