IMHO C++ is not best language to start learning programming with.

You shouldn't get any. I said "warning" not "error". And also you had to have your compiler set up properly to show all warnings (which I highly recommend).

Excuse me o,o
I would like to ask if there is a way to compile/run C using Command Prompt like Java?
and what should be the file extension when using notepad?
because I prefer using notepad.
Thank you

Sure.
Works well for single-file projects. Also, gcc parameters are the same on Windows and Linux.
Extensions are .c and .h. When saving on notepad, write the name and extension like this:
(Yes, with the ")

Thank you for the reply sir xD
I have another question o,o
where should I put that main.c?
and what should I type in command prompt to run it and test?
Thank you very much xD
I have installed Code::Blocks with MinGW
but as I said I prefer notepad since I'm confuse using CodeBlocks xD

Any place you want. Just navigate to the same folder from the command prompt.
However, I do recommend you reading how to use makefiles once your projects start growing bigger than a single file. Tutorial
here.

In the example I gave you, random.exe. -o defines the output. If undefined, it will be a.exe on Windows and a.out on Linux.

Fair enough, but I'd recommend you getting some decent editor like Notepad++ or the sorts. Or better yet, getting a Linux distro and using gedit or kate.

gcc. It's not installed or not in the path.
Most likely it's just not in your path, so here's how to add it to your path: Right click on My Computer --> Properties --> Advanced System Settings --> Environmental variables --> double click Path, and append the following:
This is the path to your MinGW install, so if it's on a different path, change accordingly. Also, the Path shouldn't contain any spaces, and the different paths on it are separated by a semicolon.
Also, it's much easier to just select all in your console window, and use the code tag here to paste it. To do so, right click on the command prompt, click select, select what you want, then press Enter to copy it.
