Hi,
I'm curious to know the spread level of programs coded in VB.net. I'm asking, because I coded in VB.net during my university years in aerospace engineering , because our informatics professor wanted us to do that and we learned at least a very basic experience in programming. So I coded a horizon finder as a project-work and asked a friend of mine, a student of informatics, to help me with some of my open questions.
and he really asked me if my professor wants to use this vb.net program on one of his satellites. (okay, even I don't want my program on a real satellite, even on this nano test satellite it was intended for :)). I replied, that I know, that he uses other vb.net stuff in it. he said, this vb.net is not used in real world's programmes and it is slower than other languages, and it isn't as flexible. he said, that there are other ways in crashing this satellite than using vb.net ;)
so I would like to know a rough estimation about the percentage of programs coded in vb.net as a software in PC apps AND in automation machines etc.
If there is no need for it, so why are there people coding in it? :D
thank you for any reply to this!
Andreas
