I kinda have the same question... I've been learning C++ and realized that there is ALOT of functions... haha. I will still learn C++ but i want to know if VB is even worthy to learn though... Like whats the ups and downs to it.
If you think that C++ has a lot of functions just wait until the full weight of the .NET Framework lands on your head. This is partially mitigated by "Intellisense", but it's a behemoth.
Whats the difference between vb and vb.net? Cause right now im using vb2008
That's vb.net. Basically anything that runs on top of the .NET framework is XXX.NET. The only exception being C#, which was created for .NET, so adding it is kind of redundant.
VB alone can refer to the vastly different and ancient language that died at VB6. It's over a decade old at this point and has as much relevance as COBOL, only with less respect. VB, even .NET, is actually the Rodney Dangerfield for the programming world and for that alone you should consider C#.
VB 2008 is VB.NET. When they say VB they're referring to VB6. VB.NET (such as VB 2008) relies on the .Net Framework and is an OO language, VB6 is neither
