SEMANTIC ANALYSIS

The owner has associated the following topics to the website.

The results of our semantic analysis are shown below using the website's language.

They are the main concepts covered by vbforums.com.

Each concept has a confidence score. The higher it is, the more important the topic is relative to the page.

Topics
Visual Basic Confidence: 92% Arrow up

Visual Basic is a third-generation event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) from Microsoft for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model first released in 1991 and declared legacy during 2008.

Microsoft intended Visual Basic to be relatively easy to learn and use.

Visual Basic was derived from BASIC, a user-friendly programming language designed for beginners, and it enables the rapid application development (RAD) of graphical user interface (GUI) applications, access to databases using Data Access Objects, Remote Data Objects, or ActiveX Data Objects, and creation of ActiveX controls and objects.

Visual Basic .NET Confidence: 91% Arrow up

Visual Basic.NET (VB.NET) is a multi-paradigm, object-oriented programming language, implemented on the .NET Framework.

Microsoft launched VB.NET in 2002 as the successor to its original Visual Basic language.

Although the ".NET" portion of the name was dropped in 2005, this article uses "Visual Basic [.NET]" to refer to all Visual Basic languages releases since 2002, in order to distinguish between them and the classic Visual Basic.

Along with Visual C#, it is one of the two main languages targeting the.NET framework.

Game programming Confidence: 81% Arrow up

Game programming, a subset of game development, is the software development of video games.

Game programming requires substantial skill in software engineering as well as specialization in one or more of the following areas, which overlap heavily to create a game: simulation, computer graphics, artificial intelligence, physics, audio programming, and input.

For massively multiplayer online games, additional areas, such as network programming and database programming are often included.

Though often engaged in by professional game programmers, many novices may program games as a hobby.
