Finally on the verge to decide whether C# or Visual Basic?

Nice

And the winner is ... VB6
The fewest lines of code .. 340.

I disagree. While the .NET version has 10 extra lines, two of those lines consist of a blank line and Option Strict ON. Neither of those lines is strictly necessary, since Option Strict ON should be set at project level. Aside from that, that option is an advantage that VB6 didn't match.

Glad we at least agree on something.

OMG, OP is choosing between VB.NET and C#, such massively different programminging languages.

****, I better inform with my president, the great leader Saddam Hussein, as I am not fully certain what our current stance is on **** vs vomit.

But seriously our dear OP, C syntax. Yes, C style syntax, you want to learn that.

Visual Basic never existed.

Yeah, I am trained in C# too although, I always find myself going back to VB.

I think you were looking for 4chan....that site was made for trolls by trolls.

It really depends on what you want to do in the long run and what you find fun.

Personally if I was going to start from scratch now I would learn C# but thats because I now do games etc. If your looking to do games then XNA is brilliant for learning and it uses c#.

However as people have already said VB is easier to learn :)
