Dear friends, I revised my c language using Geany from last year, and have been using Geany since.
I want to run a c program in Geany downloaded from the link below, but can't. The code is in Borland c++. https://web.duke.edu/isis/gessler/borland/ipd-2006-evolutionary.zip
This code is in Borland C++ Builder, which is not exactly C++ (most notably the dfm file). If by "run in Geany" you mean Make with the Build menu and Execute, you'd better write a Makefile which uses the BCB tools (no other compiler will work, due to the language differences), and setup the Execute action if needed. If you want to debug the resulting executable, only the Borland debugger will work.
I also wanted to run codes in c from the link below, but couldn't: http://www.kasprzyk.demon.co.uk/www/alife/dilemma.html
This one looks normally, so please explain what you mean by "couldn't". Note that Geany does not include a compiler, it runs various compilers and other tools. By default, the C/C++ files are setup to be compiled by the GNU Compiler Collection, aka gcc. For debugging, invoke Tools -> Plugin Manager and check "Scope" (or "debugger", but it's problematic).
