Michel,
Eigenlijk een beetje hetzelfde als Engels en Nederlands.
Als je beide echter nooit hebt geleerd, dan zie je gauw dat het toch
allemaal wat anders is dan het lijkt voor degene die goed overweg kunnen
met deze talen.
Geef even een reactie Michel (in het Engels)?
:-)
I'm really not sure what that is meant to prove. I presume you're speaking
dutch which would take me months or years to learn even though I already
know english. As opposed to C# which took me 1 single day to learn (from
knowing vb.net). If anything your post proves how similar C# and VB are.
ie most VBers could simply just start reading C# with minimal trouble (and
vice versa).
Michael
Months or Years ? even if you live in the Netherlands for decades you only
have to speak a few words
and they hear inmediatly that you are a non native speaker .
The only persons who are having an adavantage are German speaking persons .
Although they catched German undercover agents in the second world war on
the spot with only one simple question "say this loud `s Gravenhage "
fonetic " sggraavenhaage " where the g is of such a way that only a
native can pronounce it fluent,
the Germans have a hard g and can not prenounce it "our" way .
Even children from imigrants ( mostly marokkans ) who are born in this
country , but speak to much there own language ( at home and on the
streets )
because they refuse to participate in "normal" Dutch society , are mistaken
for newcomers as we here an accent in there speach .
But indeed the funny thing is that for us learning English is pretty simple
, every Dutch person speaks English even young children might surprise you
and when i am at a holliday and speak English a lot , people often mistake
me for a native English speaker wich i am obviously not .
For me well i program in Basic language since the mid eighties i was
theirteen years old when i brought my first working program to school
on a 60 minutes tape to show to my infomatica teacher ( superior calculator
;-) i called it )
, it was made on the Commodore CBM64 , i am now 35 years old
So i guess that there is 22 years of basic syntax stored in my brain ( CBM ,
QBasic , VB , VB.Net ) and then i should now abbandon my logic language
wich i grew up with for a mathmetical language ? , and you call it a brand
new language but did you ever thought why MS decided to bring up F# to the
front ?
C# has just as manny constructs inherited from C , C++ and Java as VB.Net
from VB legacy , i guess that you just made your choice for the wrong
reassons
and you are still searching for ways to convince yourself that you made the
right choice .
I am a VB DotNet Coder and i wear the VB part with pride
regards
Michel
