Best Compiler?
 
I am looking for the best and easiest compiler to use. I prefer something on the free side so I play with for a while. I am using Ubuntu.

GCC is the default compiler on all Linux distros. Its free so search for it in synaptic and select it for installation.

Visual Studio is an IDE with a compiler built in. if you need an IDE for Linux, you could install Anjuta or KDevelop (both use GCC as the compiler). Since you are using Ubuntu, use Synaptic which is the package installer and choose anjuta or kdevelop as well as the gcc related packages you want to install.

When not using vi, that's my C/C++ IDE:
