Visual Basic has become the standard language of programming. In addition to teaching Visual Basic, this unique programming guide will teach readers the fundamental programming concepts they need to grasp in order to learn any computer language. This non-intimidating reference enables readers to take the skills they learn and apply them to their own situations. A truly one-of-a-kind book, this guide assumes the reader has no programming experience and offers the fun approach of game creation as a teaching tool.
Visual Basic 2008 Programmer's Reference is a language tutorial and a reference guide to the upcoming 2008 release of Visual Basic. The tutorial provides basic material suitable for beginners but also includes in-depth content for more advanced developers.
The second part of the book is a reference that quickly allows programmers to locate information for specific language features. The entries in these appendices allow the reader to quickly review the details of important programming, objects, properties, methods, and events.
Visual Basic 2008 Programmer's Reference will be fully revised (30%) to cover the latest features of the Visual Basic 2008 release, including:
* Changes to variable declaration and initialization
* XLinq support for XML data types; query comprehensions for using SQL-like syntax to extract data from arrays and other data structures
* Extension methods for adding new features to existing classes
* Nested subroutines and functions
* Anonymous subroutines and functions ("lambda expressions")
* Nullable types
* Relaxed delegates
* Dynamic interfaces
* Dynamic identifiers
The author expects about 100 new pages of new examples covering these features; he will also extensively revise and retest all code to ensure compliance with the Visual Basic 2008 release.
