Are there any online books that teaches me how to program in C for windows if I have NO programming experince? and what compiler should I use? "He who fights monsters must look that he does not become one" -Baldur''''s Gate

You have to walk before you can run. Programming in C isn''t a walk in the park; it takes an understanding of a fair number of programming concepts and principles to do effectively, and then programming Windows turns a lot of what you''d have just learned on its head. There''s a reason why there''s no such book.

Learn to program with a powerful but simple language (eg Python) and then transfer your knowledge to C (if you still think it''s necessary or worthwhile).
