Solve : Visual Basic or C++ Programming, which is easier??

Answer»

I like to know which is easier to program and to use Visual Basic Programming or C++ Programming. I am THINKING about taking a CLASS on Programming. Also do you need to download any software to use with Visual Basic and/or C+?
Depends who you ask. I personally prefer Visual Basic .net (and I know both) because to me, it makes more sense.

Yes, you do need software. For Visual Basic and Visual C++, it's here: http://www.microsoft.com/express/download/default.aspx

Pretty good stuff, too.

Also, if someone says you can't do as advanced stuff with VB .net, don't believe them. I have never found a program someone has made in C++ that won't work in Visual Basic. It's just different commands, really.
The best way is to learn both language coz it will help you in some ways. But I would suggest that you learn Visual Basic.net.My Answer: --- C++ ---As you know, Adobe, Macromedia and other observable popular products have been created in C++. Thus, you know how demanding is C++ in IT sector. So why not learn C++ first?
You may go for VB later.

Hope you go for the right coaching.....And YET Visual Basic .net was designed by Microsoft, so it's gotta work well on Windows...

Ever heard of the .net framework? Comes built-in with Vista... used with VB .NET, and you run anything you want on it.

Also, if you've never heard of Paint .net, I suggest you look it up. It was developed in VB .NET (hence its name) and is an absolutely astounding program.Quote from: Bones92 on March 31, 2008, 01:35:30 AM

Ever heard of Photoshop? It is developed in C++.

But don't get me wrong I'm all for the .NET framework. It is a joy to develop in and probably one of the easiest ways to begin programming since you get so many things handed to you. But if you're going to start with a .NET language I would strongly recommend you go with C#.
1.) It is a more powerful language than VB and a more modern language. (Object oriented like C++)
2.) The langauge syntax in C# and Java is almost identical. So when you know C# you pretty much know Java as well.
3.) Both C# and Java have gotten a lot of inspiration from C++, so the move from either one to C++ is not very big.I suppose we aren't going to agree on this...
