DNZone Poll Favorite Language

Check out the latest poll results concerning favorite .NET language. Very interesting results. I was pleasantly surprised to see that C# is winning. Why do I like C# better? Because VB.NET is tooo verbose and the syntax is not good for an object oriented language.

What .NET Language are you using?

The VB.NET sintax not good for an object oriented language???? Why this? I don't think so, and I think also MS don't think so...

What I mean is that the inheritance model seems to have been created in a reactionary manner. In order for VB to become an object oriented language, the inheritance model and object definitions were created in an awkward manner in order to accomodate the number of users using classic VB. I have used VB since 2.0 was released. I am very familiar with it. It is a useful and somewhat elegant language when doing structured programming. It is not as elegant when using it to do OO programming.

Although I think C# is better, I do think that it is beneficial to learn VB.NET. I have to use VB.NET and C# on my job so it is best know both.
