n1ckkkkk Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Was wondering if anyone here has used Visual Basic Just started dwelling into it and wodering if anyone has tips or any input Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasTormenture Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Visual basic tips? Its really easy to understand. I'd grab someone else's code and just start reading it. It is pretty basic... Hence its name. Then I'd go learn a better language, fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The_Monkey Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 VB gets a bad rap...there is nothing wrong with VB as a high level language. You can write decent windows apps with it. Get a good understanding of it...add a little .net...and start making apps for windows mobile If you want to stick with windows languages....go to C#...you will get your feet wet with object oriented programming (though you can do that with VB). Also, C# is used in lots of gaming and robotics crap. If you want to be a pro, learn C++ and C. Then go to Java. If you want to be a geek, learn fortran and RPG.

NOMNOM Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I made a 100 in my VB course back in high school, then barely made like an 89.9 in C++ my freshman year of college. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say it was going to be an easy transition VB is very much like writing pseudo code, and very event driven. C++ requires you to make classes and objects...very drastic change.

Weeman Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 i always called VB C++ with makeup on, its very user friendly and you can make cool programs with it. for my midterm in the class we had to make a calculator (which is redicuously fucking easy) so instead i made a program that opened and closed any cd or dvd drive on the computer :-) my teacher gave me an A+ lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Love Lamp Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 VB is a very good intro language. However, it picks up a lot of your slack and is much more forgiving than some more complex languages, like the C family, so make sure you learn proper programming etiquette while you are learning VB.
