What does /g/ think about Visual Basic?

>>54861067
I mean, visually speaking, it's pretty basic.

Shit for use, good for teaching noobs

I think it's the nigger language for niggers and over-the-hill jizz stains.

Having said that it got me started when I was 13, so I can't really complain.

>>54861067
It's shit

Stupid sexy Bill.

>Microshaft version of a shitty language
The only thing it’s good at is making amateur antiviruses.

It's poo.

I copied most of my friends work in Visual Basic in school. I don't get any of that shit. Funny thing is I'm supervisor for our firms IT department, make more than the people who know how to program.

its ok to fuck around in if you know it but if you dont its not worth learning imo

I'm learning it for my university. They have a Microcucks partnership so we do mostly everything related to them.

Isn't VB used for macron in Office mostly?

>all this hate for vb

If you're talking about the original VB it was shit with faux-OOP. But you could develop simple corporate front ends vaster in VB than in C++/Win32, so it became widely used.

If you're talking about VB.NET, there is literally no difference between it and C#. Same framework, runtime, JIT, performance, everything. Tiny syntax differences are the only differences. So tiny that a bot can convert any project from one to the other without error.

C# exists so that .NET fags can feel like they're wearing big boy pants because "I'm using C(syntax)!"

What do I think of .NET in general? It's actually pretty good for prototyping and rapid application development. I can completely understand why so many corporate IT teams are .NET.

It's shit for cross platform (inb4 the kissing disease), absolute balls out performance, interfacing with hardware, and other low level shit.

.NET is also loaded with Pajeets which I hate, but which isn't really the fault of the languages or tools.

visual basic doesn't exist anymore, anon

i honestly believe ms kept it for so long, just because bill's nostalgia of simpler times, when basic help him create his empire.

It's great for creating GUI interfaces so you can track IP addresses.

Knowing vb6 when you were a kid made you a legendary hacker

i only have visuals of your mom

Speaking of M$ stuff. How do we know C# won't just up and disappear like VB.

VB has shit syntax. I just laugh whenever I see it mentioned.
