Visual Basic is the best programming language for software application development techniques, and is the easiest to learn. Sure, you can also use Web sites to design imaginative, business applications, advanced database systems, and distributed transactions. For industrial applications and techniques, however, Visual Basic is better than anything else. In this article I will try to present some of the reasons behind mystatements.
First of all, Visual Basic comes with a unique graphical interface, which is certainly the easiest to work with. For those who know how to do this, Visual Basic does all Visual C + + ago, only ten to twenty times faster and easier. It takes a few minutes to insert a label or a red line to see the dynamic value of a technical parameter. Of course, some graphical controls are very complex, but not necessarilyneed them. The controls are more important in technical applications: labels, text boxes, buttons, MSFlexGrid, then lines, rectangles and circles. That's it! You do not need fancy graphics. Using only the base, I have summarized a few checks you can design your applications more powerful techniques of today, all over the world.
When we control the hardware is more important to process the data as bytes and bits. In C and C + + using pointers to break integer in bytes, or to concatenatebyte integers and doubles. In Visual Basic we use mathematical operations on bytes, and the results are exactly the same. In order to process the individual bits that we use "male" and bit-shift in C and C + +. In Visual Basic also use masks and bit-shift is replaced with mathematical operations. Few are familiar with Visual Basic has incredibly rich libraries of mathematical functions, and are optimized for very fast calculations. You can easilyDiscover the logic functions and statistics, "sine", "log", "exp", and all other mathematical goodies that bring happiness and sunshine in our lives.
Now, many readers will object, saying Visual Basic is limited to Windows PC OS (Operating System). No doubt about it, but we're talking about 80% of the world! What do you expect? The next step in the development of PC is what we now called "Tablet PC, and Windows has a good grip on that with Windows MobileOS. Also on the PDA market (adapters for peripheral devices), Windows CE is one of the best available to the operating system. In addition, all software applications are written for Windows PC first, before anything else.
Right! Now, do a little 'problem with this particular hardware control using Visual Basic. The first thing to do is design the form intelligent hardware using, for example, or even dsPIC30F3011 dsPIC30F4011. If you have no idea how to do it, this is perfect, and you do notto cause concern. Once you have your beautiful little piece of hardware work, you must write a program intelligent firmware to give "life". Once again, I suspect you do not know how to write firmware in C for Microchip dsPIC, but that's good - trust me with this. I can guarantee that it will become an expert in hardware and firmware in about 60 days - that is, considering that you want, and it invests little, minimal efforts for this.
In addition, you must take acouple of weeks to learn how to write a Visual Basic application to "talk" with the hardware module. Firmware and hardware that work together to collect field data from devices and sends it to your Visual Basic application. Wow! Your Intelligent Visual Basic application is to display the analog field data in a dynamic, graphical control on a track - and you know how to design it - just like on an oscilloscope screen. You can store thedata in binary files on a PC, you can send commands to and from the hardware module, and process the field data as bits and bytes, mathematically, how do you like more! To finish, you can send the whole file to track hardware and back, or even an Internet site.
Wondering, perhaps, how you are going to do all those wonders. This is really easy! Just visit my website at home, and discover a book tutorials about learning hardware, firmware and software design. Thisno joke, and the book I refer to is the best that can be found today all over the world. It 'just can not believe it! Find and read the table of contents and introductory chapters, and you learn everything you want to know about it. Then it's up to you, but my advice is, do not throw away valuable, useful information, because you're going to need a day. The knowledge is never enough or too much.
