0 Bamsebjørn Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 If you want to make software for Microsoft Windows, I'd suggest you try Visual Studio Express. You can download free tools to developer for the web, for Windows Phone or to developer Windows applications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to try them to see what language suits you the best. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Rudy Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Visual Basic will be the easiest, good luck :) If he's starting from nothing he might as well try to learn C# instead :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 firey Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 VB (Visual Basic) Is the most english like in my opinion. It all depends on preference. VB is very straight forward ie: Dim i as integer i = 10 If i = 10 then MessageBox.Show("It's 10!") 'Or msgbox if it is vb6 end if However.. I prefer C# which is like int i = 10; if (i == 10) MessageBox.Show("It is 10!"); For starters.. go with Vb it is WAY WAY easier to debug as you literally talk your way through the code.
