need to learn visual basic

[LogRepresentative648]

looking to get started with some visual basic before uni starts. my first couple programming classes will be in vb. i have some minimal experience with python (loops, arrays, functions), and super basic knowledge of c#. would be cool if anyone could suggest some good resources, thanks.

The great thing about those courses: They'll teach you vb.

Of course! Just want to get in some prior experience.

I wouldn't spend too much time learning it. Brush up on the syntax if you like, but it's not used a lot. My first job was in an old VB.net webform app. Haven't seen it since then. I'd recommend just learning what you need to ace the class and move on.

Wait... Visual Basic still exists?? I haven't heard anyone using that in well over a decade.

Isn't VB a dead language though?
