I've taken BASIC and C++ as classes, but lately I've been teaching myself Visual Basic. It's pretty sweet, and really easy to use. (I use Microsoft Visual Basic 6.) I just really like programming and was wondering if there's anyone who's any good with VB on this forum..

I don't like VB much, too slow. Although when I did it, I was fairly decent

Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.

I never saw a point to it really. Its not powerful enough to make anything worthwhile.

Im a big fan of languages that have immediate use without 90 pages of declares and initializing. Like PHP

Ugh, PHP is proving to be a nightmere to learn.

If I learn Interactive C first will it be easier?  (Learning C for Botball, I will be a programmer next year)

This past school year I was in Visual Basics.  The class was easy, but since the teacher was a ding-bat, the tests were the hardest tests I have ever taken.

Same, since I'm not in any programming classes and there's nothing I really need to code. The only thing I could possibly think about coding is a decent media player.

I take VB but all we do is go on the Internet, fight, throw stuff out windows, play games, and pass the class.

If you do it, I will worship you like a demigod.

No, just kidding.

But if it really was any good, I'd use it. Winamp and WMP suck.

Yyyyeah..It's just like..I really can't do anything visual with C++, and I was able to get VB 6 from my friend, so I figured I'd learn it, as I already know some QBasic. I just like to make dumb programs to kill time, but I know how you guys feel. It's hard to be inspired to make anything useful.
