I've just started learning C programming, using Code::Blocks as my IDE. I've got a quick question about the program settings I'm hoping someone can help me with.
Whenever I start typing in a printf, this little box pops in with some text I don't understand. It looks like an auto-complete feature or maybe a code suggestion, but it's very distracting since I'm still new to learning the language and it blocks parts of the code I've already typed in. For what it's worth, this is the string I'm referring to:
Is there a way to turn this off? I've gone through the editor settings, but I either a) don't see it in there, or b) don't recognize it as such (a lot of the settings I don't understand quite yet).
Thanks to anyone who can help me out! It's a dumb little issue, but I figure it can't hurt to ask.

I don't know what version of Code::Blocks you're using, but at least in version 13.12 you can disable code completion in: Settings -> Editor... -> Code Completion (the 9th down) -> Code Completion Tab -> Disable code-completion. Alternatively, instead of disabling everything, you can just disable the "Automatically launch when typed # letters", which is a little further down.
but yeah it's very good, it teaches you all the programming vocabulary and everything and I'm telling you, professional vocabulary has been the bane of my learning since I discovered it you have to stop people and actually get them to explain what certain words is otherwise they'll just carry on and assume you know it all.
