<strong>Visual Studio.Net</strong> Is microsofts developer environment, which helps the programmer a lot with a feature called intellisense which autocompletes most familiar statements. The <strong>.Net framework</strong> is a system independent set of classes and methods defined by microsoft, and I saw statemens that there are also implementtions on unix-sytems. Though .Net accepts programing in various languages, even intermixed, I recommend to you <strong>C#</strong> (which is more or less typesafe C++) It is my main language since most bugs that I would have using C++, are caught by C# at compile time which makes it more easy to debug the programs one creates.
The .Net framework as said allows you to choose the language you write in, but since I change toward C# I didn't need this feature yet.
so my recommendation: <strong>Visual Studio.Net</strong>, .Net frameworks (which is automatic, given VS) and as your main language <strong>C#</strong>. |
