Visual Basic .NET is a multi-purpose computer programming language from Microsoft that is suitable for most development needs. The language is designed with Rapid Application Development in mind, providing several tools to shorten development time. This WikiBook introduces Visual Basic.NET language fundamentals and covers a variety of the base class libraries (BCL) provided by the .NET Framework.
Introduction
- Introduction
- A description of Visual Basic .NET.
- The Visual Studio Integrated Development Environment (IDE)

- Variables
- The entities used to store various types of data.
- Arrays
- A variable that stores several data of the same data type.
- Branch statements
- The various conditional statements in the language for selective code execution.
- Loop statements
