VB.NET for Beginners - Lesson 3

Thursday July 2, 2009

Types, Procedures, Properties, and Methods

Lesson 3 of the Visual Basic .NET for Beginners tutorial has been posted. The tutorial is for people new to programming Visual Basic. This course totally replaces a previous course with this same name on the site. Lesson three focuses in on the symmetry between "types" in VB.NET and "properties" in objects and between "procedures" and "methods" to help you really get your head around the idea of programming objects. An updated version of the example program used in the lessons shows how to compute "days between dates" with the MonthCalendar component. . .

You’re very welcome.

Can you think of any way that I can improve the tutorial? Unlike a lot of sites, I upgrade my content constantly when I discover some improvement that can be made.
