I’m really new to CUDA programming, I’ve been busy reading the programming guide and the best practices guide. I was sort of limited to reading about CUDA, but beginning from next thursday I’ll have access to a cuda-enabled GPU and I really want to be prepared.
Which do you consider to be the best programming environment for CUDA programs? I’ve been reading about Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, 2008. Do you agree? Can you suggest me some step-by-step tutorial? I’d really like to not loose too much time on this collateral things and get started.
I’d suggest that the best environment for programming in CUDA is the environment that you already know and use. I’m assuming, of course, that you’re already an experienced programmer. So if you already know MSVS, use it. If you don’t, your brain will have enough to do learning CUDA without trying to learn VS too.
