I will forget Visual Basic, and I will work on C ... Do you recommend me to do that ? Even if we re learning VB in uni ? Would I get lost between the two languages ?
Of course no, C and VB are much different, and C is not as easy as VB and learning C at home and doing VB at uni will most probably make you get lost especially if you are a beginner. All programming languages have common programming principles and semantics but the syntax is much more different. In addition, in C you can't create quick GUI stuff using drag and drop and then create events for your components by double clicking on them etc... everything would be hard coded. There is a big difference. Can't you just as a freind at uni or your professor to give you a copy of VB6? I mean if he is teaching VB6 then he should be responsible to give/tell you from were to get it. :)
The thing is , this is the same professor that is teaching me algorithm , and obviously , we won't be getting a long together, since he's a really bad teacher . I started learning C on the internet, and I've learned so many things, that my teacher taught wrong. Like let's take the compiler for instance. My teacher gave me a really shitty definition that no one understood, while it was an easy thing :It basically transforms the language written to binary so that the pc can understand it.
I've done like 15 hours Vb with that idiot, and in 30 minutes last night , i learned a lot about the functionalities of pc with the C tutorial.
The idiot in the second T.D actually told us to try and rewrite Microsoft Word for god's sakes and told us that no one is going to be able to do so , how on earth am I supposed to learn from that?
