At least none of you got dragged through the VB6 mud puddle. I got:

gr10 -> Turing
gr11 -> VB6
gr12 -> Java

Going from Turing -> VB6 is actually terrible. Compared to *Turing*, VB6 lacks the following:

- Object-Oriented Programming (their GUI elements are objects, but you can't expand them, and you can't have anything more complex than Turing's records.
- for i:1..100 - in VB6, you get to go Dim I as Integer, then on the next line you can do your for loop. Practical upshot is that I isn't local to that for loop, and can be re-used elsewhere...and if you forget to reset it to 0 or 1, then you've got a very straaaange bug to hunt down.

Once I got to Java I was pleased with the language, though RTP sucked badly. Once I found Eclipse I elected to never visit the Dark Side of MS ever again.

ooh, mine was exactly the same. I hated Java...

About the turing to vb6, that's why I'm creating a 'visual turing' to somewhat combine the two.

Well, every language seems to have their flaws...
gotta live with it.
