Anyone like me who likes computers and programming I thought id do a quick tutorial on how to program in the VB programming language.

First you will need to download Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express Edition, Type it into Google, ITS FREE TO DOWNLOAD!
Once its downloaded, Boot it up and you should see this screen.

Programming Lesson 1 110

Click on "New project" and double click 'Console Application"

Programming Lesson 1 210

Then you should see the Programming Screen which looks a bit like notepad.

Click in-between "Sub main" and "End Sub" and this is where you can program.

Programming Lesson 1 310

Now i'm going to run through some basic commands with you.

In this space where you have clicked you can type

Console.writeline("Hello World")
Console.readline

This will display Hello world on the console and the console.readline makes the program wait for the user to press enter.

To run your program to test it, Click "Start Debugging" which is the little green arrow at the top of the screen or press F5.

So now you can display things on the console we can start on harder things in lesson 2! :)

Hope you have found this helpful!
