This book introduces Visual Basic from an object-oriented viewpoint, with a rigor and accessibility perfect for students learning their first programming language. Rich in the pedagogical style that is the trademark of the Dale series of programming texts, this Visual Basic text provides straightforward explanations, meaningful examples, and engaging exercises. Students develop good programming habits right from the start and acquire a thorough understanding of classes, methods, object-oriented concepts, and algorithms. The Visual Basic Graphical User Interface (GUI) is extensively discussed, which complements the text's emphasis on fundamental programming concepts. The active learning methodology and rich topic coverage of this text thoroughly prepare students for future study.
The focus of this book is on the fundamentals of programming. Each chapter focuses on one of the major programming constructs of the language. User interface details, while not ignored, are kept to the basics of form design in Visual Basic .NET. I wrote this book feeling that once the reader has a good grasp of using Visual Basic .NET, the reader can venture out on his or her own to learn more about user interface design and development.
