Hi,
In the aspect of function, what are the differences between Visual Basic
and C #? Thanks.


Beside the IDE in fact nothing important.

They can use both the same namespaces,

It seems by instance that VBNet has more methods because is has an automatic
reference to the Visual Basic namespace. In C# you can use that namespace by
setting a reference to it.

See for the specs by instance this page.

I hope this helps,

So, is this just the matter of C programmer or VB programmer?

hmm...... my opinion .

C# has as much Java as it has C ,,,,,,,,, As it is targeted towards
programmers who are currently working with abstract languages it will in the
end have the biggest audience that is a fact . however if you have a "Basic"
background you would now that current VB is the evolution was based partly
on FORTRAN II and partly on ALGOL 60 so where have we seen this before oh
yeahhh Java , C++ etc etc evolving to one brand new language C# .
The hole hysteria between C syntax programmers and Basic programmers all
goes back to the simple fact that basic stands for
Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code , well wake up VB is
evolved to a language that can cross its swords to anny availlable
programming language that currently exists .

I can use both languages as it is pretty easy to switch if you know one of
them , i would recomend you to use the language that you feel most at home
with and if you can do anything you like to do in that language , give the
other one some try`s as you will see that they have both there pro`s and
weakenesses and it will ofciourse make you a more valued person if you can
read and write both

The differences are essentially cosmetic. Once your code is running, the source
language is irrelevant: the different structures for same functionality (array
element referencing, storage declaration, etc.) all compile to the same
underlying structure and both use the exact same libraries.
