programming language suitable not only for Windows
applications, but also for Web applications. While
retaining its advantages in ease of learning, efficiency at
developing sophisticated applications, VB.NET has now
added an array of powerful features such as Web forms,
mobile controls, support for XML, full compatibility with
other languages (such as C#, Visual C++, Cobol, NET),
etc. Students will learn all the programming basics using
VB.NET, as well as being exposed to topics such as
Object-Oriented programming, Database programming,
and Web programming.
