// C++ version of 99 Bottles of Beer, object oriented paradigm
// programmer: Tim Robinson timtroyr@ionet.net
#include <fstream.h>

enum Bottle { BeerBottle };

class Shelf {
    unsigned BottlesLeft;
public:
    Shelf( unsigned bottlesbought )
        : BottlesLeft( bottlesbought )
        {}
    void TakeOneDown()
        {
        if (!BottlesLeft)
            throw BeerBottle;
        BottlesLeft--;
        }
    operator int () { return BottlesLeft; }
    };

int main( int, char ** )
    {
    Shelf Beer(99);
    try {
        for ( ; ; ) {
            char *plural = (int)Beer !=1 ? "s" : "";
            cout << (int)Beer << " bottle" << plural
                 << " of beer on the wall," << endl;
            cout << (int)Beer << " bottle" << plural
                 << " of beer," << endl;
            Beer.TakeOneDown();
            cout << "Take one down, pass it around," << endl;
            plural = (int)Beer !=1 ? "s":"";
            cout << (int)Beer << " bottle" << plural
                 << " of beer on the wall." << endl;
            }
        }
    catch ( Bottle ) {
        cout << "Go to the store and buy some more," << endl;
        cout << "99 bottles of beer on the wall." << endl;
        }
    return 0;
    }

There are two other versions of this program at : http://www.99-bottles-of-beer.net/c.html

That you need a compiler or example programs to practice? 
If they are example programs: www.planetsourcecode.com, www.codebeach.com 
 
You found enough code to practice from c,c++, visual c, or visual basic

yes but i need a compiler to practice cause right now i have no c++ compiler to practice something with

This has been answered several times in this thread: http://www.agsforums.com/yabb/index.php?topic=17279.0

If you want a good, free compiler, http://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html
Fun.

A couple of other links I found that might be of help:

lcc-win32: "get started programming in C in the Win32 environment".
It's free for non-commercial use.
