RE: [PHP] Visual Basic transition

I hope you mean by Visual Basic ASP, if you're not you are better of using python or perl instead of php (although some people would argue with me about that). It kind of depends of your previous programming background, I came from C(++) as a fact I am still programming in it, with this backround going to PHP is very easy. Forget about pointers and you're almost done. VB/Asp is nice for very small programs, but for large projects the code gets messy and unmaintainable. To upgrade from ASP to PHP, should not be very difficult although your programmer should learn a new syntax.

He's used to writing desktop apps with Visual Basic. For those of you who are fluent in PHP and Visual Basic, how difficult do you think it would be for him to pick up PHP and convert some of his apps? I'd just like to have some input before I suggest it. -- Ian Evans -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
