how to run this program? can i run in quincy?

Stump Enum from New Zealand Comment on: Apr 11
excuse me, i know these files are all old but, i am learning c++ for fun, i'm interested in the graphics now too, but apparently <graphics.h> is not usable in windows. im using that free MS Visual C++ 2008 Express.
i guess my question is, is there an alternative to <graphics.h> ?

if not..is c++ outdated?
