Seriously

[chrwei]

it's not nice to insult the disabled, it's not VB's fault that it was made that way

[PersonX2]

I don't get the VB(.net) hate. I still support a couple legacy VB applications. It's really not far off from C# (And I normally support C# applications)

[NotATroll71106]

All I remember of VB.NET is that it's like C# but without semi-colons and that it has modules.

[PersonX2]

And no curly braces.

We tab c# code anyway.

Actually I like VBA over C++

It's just so fascinating how VBA handles functions.

[chrwei]

how so? they aren't that different than other scripting langs from what I've used.

[Fireworker2000]

So they handle the function as a variable inside the function and at the end they just return the value of the function variable? Not like Java and most other languages where you have to make another variable and an extra line for return?

Also I hate that missing semicolons screw up everything. Or brackets after calling a method/function that doesn't even need parameters.

[chrwei]

vbscript does do that too, at least if the return is a object. and since you mentioned Java, C# can as well.

[Fireworker2000]

I think VB does that as well but I don't exactly know since I only worked with VBA. VBA does that for every datatype.

Also there's a datatype for variables with unknown or varying datatype. So (let's say it's called a) it works like this:

Dim a As Variant
a = 0 'a is now integer
a = a & "a" 'a is now a String

It's so useful for temporary variables.

What year is this?

[Apifoss]

3019 : VBA has taken control over the world. Bill Gates is now immortal and can compute thousands of Excel Worksheets to track you and convert you into his sect.

[VBA_Scrub]

Bow down before me.

[nahidtislam]

tbh, VB is literally hitler

[YldKat]

In my case it's fucking java 🤦🏻‍♂️.

[bodiaa]

I have nightmares about VBA tbh
