    There are different types of programming such as object-oriented programming (OOP), event-driving programming (EDP), and procedural program, (PP). Some people may agree that there are advantages of using OOP instead of only using PP. A class may have one attribute and one method, in which the class represents an event, the attributes the class stores and the purpose of the method. The class, attributes, and methods share a relationship. Visual Logic is used to learn about programming but lacks…

Prompts given to me were thought provoking and interesting, so I took a lot of interest in various types of arguments and assignments. What caught my interest in this subject is how, as a writer, one has to argue from both sides, include research data to support them, and then conclude them with a winning argument. My collection of persuasive writing demonstrates that I…

    Visual Basic can be used to create UI and UX rich programs for Windows platforms in a very short time. Whereas, C++ can be used to write complex programs that needs to computer faster without using much hardware resources. C++ is command line based language, on the other hand, Visual Basic is IDE and event driven language. For example, creating a pop up box in C++ is a tedious task.

    (“cplusplus.com” n.d.). Primitive data types, such as int, float, and char, are nearly indistinguishable, and arithmetic operators, such as addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (*), and division (/), are carried out in the same manner. Control constructs, such as if statements, for loops, while loops, and switch statements, are also shared among both languages(“cplusplus.com” n.d.). Both languages support classes, and single inheritance in C++ is comparable to Java (“Cornell.edu” n.d.).…
