Difference between the C# and VB.net

[vikramrandhawa]

How We differentiate the C# and Vb.net in .net Platform...

C# is a programing language while VB.net is .net framework application.

c# is DOS basic programming language & vb.net is framework . net framework are multiple language support.

C# is programming language and VB.net window based language....

I love to code with C#. It is too simple to understand and write also. I mostly love to code in asp.net with code behind. I also integrate the vb with the application if it is ever made by others.

c# isn't really 'better' for learning as it's just another syntax for the same thing. The code all gets converted to the same language whether you do it in VB.NET or c#.

The downside to VB.NET is the framework must be installed (1.0 or 2.0 depending on your version of VS - we use both at work...awesome ) which is quite bulky...but more and more apps are starting to use it and it's becoming a default install on servers

The other downside is that the language is never going to be quite as quick as something made in c/c++.

So for games, I'd probably stick with C++ - for rapid development of applications I'd use .NET.

Vb.net is not case sensitive where C# is case sensitive.

Event gets bind automatically in VB.Net.
VB.NET is not case sensitive where C# is.
Shadowing: – This is a VB.Net Concept by which you can provide a new implementation for the base class member without overriding the member. You can shadow a base class member in the derived class by using the keyword “Shadows”. The method signature, access level and return type of the shadowed member can be completely different than the base class member.

Hiding: – This is a C# Concept by which you can provide a new implementation for the base class member without overriding the member. You can hide a base class member in the derived class by using the keyword “new”. The method signature, access level and return type of the hidden member has to be same as the base class member. Comparing the two:-
1) The access level, signature and the return type can only be changed when you are shadowing with VB.NET. Hiding and overriding demands these parameters as same.

2) The difference lies when you call the derived class object with a base class variable. In class of overriding although you assign a derived class object to base class variable it will call the derived class function. In case of shadowing or hiding the base class function will be called.

i have now days started to learn the code of vb.net i will study about c
# later then i will able to know the difference between both of them.
