INTRODUCTION

• The VB.NET stands for Visual Basic. Network Enabled Technologies. It is a simple, high-level,
object-oriented programming language developed by Microsoft in 2002.

• It is a successor of Visual Basic 6.0, that is implemented on the Microsoft .NET framework.

• Furthermore, it supports the OOPs concept, such as abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, and
polymorphism.

• Therefore, everything in the VB.NET language is an object, including all primitive data types (Integer,
String, char, long, short, Boolean, etc.), user-defined data types, events, and all objects that inherit
from its base class.

• It is not a case sensitive language, whereas, C++, Java, and C# are case sensitive language.

• This language is used to design user interfaces for window, mobile, and web-based applications
DATATYPES
Data type is used to define the type of a variable or function in a program.

A Data Type refers to which type of data or value is assigning to a variable or function so that a variable can hold
a defined data type value.

Syntax: Dim Variable_Name As Datatype

VARIABLE
A variable is a simple name used to store the value of a specific data type in computer memory. In
VB.NET, each variable has a particular data type that determines the size, range, and fixed space
in computer memory. In simple words , variable is name of memory location and it stores any type
of values.
The Dim statement is used for variable declaration and storage allocation for one or more
variables. The Dim statement is used at module, class, structure, procedure or block level.
Syntax: Dim Variable_Name As Datatype=[value]
Name Descriptions
Dim It is used to declare and allocate the space for one or more variables in memory.

Variable_Name It defines the name of the variable to store the values.

As It is a keyword that allows you to define the data type in the declaration statement.

Data Type It defines a data type that allows variables to store data types such as Char, String, Integer, Decimal,
Long, etc.
Value Assign a value to the variable.
OPERATORS
operator is a special symbol that tells the compiler to perform the specific logical or mathematical
operation on the data values. The data value itself (which can be either a variable or a constant) is
called an operand, and the Operator performs various operations on the operand.

The operands can be integer , floating-point , characters or strings.

For example: 3+2-2 , The symbol + and - are the Operators, and the 3, 2, and 1 are operands.
 ARITHEMETIC OPERATOR
The Arithmetic Operators in VB.NET, used to perform mathematical operations such as subtraction,
addition, multiplication, division, etc. on the operands in VB.NET.
For example: A=2 and B=7

Operator Description Example

^ Raises one operand to the power of another B^A will give 49
+ Adds two operands A + B will give 9
- Subtracts second operand from the first A - B will give -5
* Multiplies both operands A * B will give 14
Divides one operand by another and returns a floating point
/ B / A will give 3.5
result

\ Divides one operand by another and returns an integer result B \ A will give 3

MOD Modulus Operator and remainder of after an integer division B MOD A will give 1
 RELATIONAL OPERATOR
The Relational Operator is used to compare the value of two variables or operands for the various condition
such as greater, less than or equal, etc. and returns a Boolean value either true or false based on the
condition.
For example: A=10 and B=20
Operator Description Example
Checks if the values of two operands are equal or not; if yes, then
= (A = B) is not true.
condition becomes true.
Checks if the values of two operands are equal or not; if values are not
<> (A <> B) is true.
equal, then condition becomes true.

Checks if the value of left operand is greater than the value of right
> (A > B) is not true.
operand; if yes, then condition becomes true.

Checks if the value of left operand is less than the value of right
< (A < B) is true.
operand; if yes, then condition becomes true.

Checks if the value of left operand is greater than or equal to the value
>= (A >= B) is not true.
of right operand; if yes, then condition becomes true.

Checks if the value of left operand is less than or equal to the value of
<= (A <= B) is true.
right operand; if yes, then condition becomes true.
 ASSIGNMENT OPERATOR

The Assignment Operators are used to assign the value to variables in VB.NET.
Operator Description Example
Simple assignment operator, Assigns values from right side operands to left C = A + B will assign value of A + B into
=
side operand C
Add AND assignment operator, It adds right operand to the left operand and
+= C += A is equivalent to C = C + A
assigns the result to left operand
Subtract AND assignment operator, It subtracts right operand from the left
-= C -= A is equivalent to C = C - A
operand and assigns the result to left operand
Multiply AND assignment operator, It multiplies right operand with the left
*= C *= A is equivalent to C = C * A
operand and assigns the result to left operand
Divide AND assignment operator, It divides left operand with the right operand
/= C /= A is equivalent to C = C / A
and assigns the result to left operand (floating point division)
Divide AND assignment operator, It divides left operand with the right operand
\= C \= A is equivalent to C = C \A
and assigns the result to left operand (Integer division)
Exponentiation and assignment operator. It raises the left operand to the power
^= C^=A is equivalent to C = C ^ A
of the right operand and assigns the result to left operand.
<<= Left shift AND assignment operator C <<= 2 is same as C = C << 2
>>= Right shift AND assignment operator C >>= 2 is same as C = C >> 2
Concatenates a String expression to a String variable or property and assigns Str1 &= Str2 is same as
&=
the result to the variable or property. Str1 = Str1 & Str2
 LOGICAL OPERATOR
The Logical operators are used to perform test on two relational expressions.
For example: A=True and B=False

Operator Description Example

If both the operands are true, then condition becomes true.
And (A And B) is False.
Otherwise, it returns false.

Or If any of the two operands is true, then condition becomes true. (A Or B) is True.

Not If a condition is true, then Logical NOT operator will make false. Not(A And B) is True.

It returns True if both expressions are True or both expressions are

Xor A Xor B is True.
False; otherwise it returns False
 CONTROL STATEMENTS

In VB.NET, the control statements are the statements that controls the execution of the program on the
basis of the specified condition. It is useful for determining whether a condition is true or not. If the
condition is true, a single or block of statement is executed.
 CONDITIONAL STATEMENTS
Conditional statements in Visual Basic can be used to take decisions based on certain conditions in your
program.

SELECT CASE
IF-THEN

IF-THEN-ELSE
 IF-THEN
DEFINITION:
The If-Then Statement is a control
statement that defines one or more
conditions, and if the particular
condition is satisfied, it executes a
piece of information or statements.
SYNTAX:
If condition Then
[Statement or block of Statement]
End If
IF-THEN-
ELSE
DEFINITION:
The If-Then Statement can execute
single or multiple statements when
the condition is true, but when the
expression evaluates to false, it
does nothing
SYNTAX:
If (Boolean_expression) Then
'This statement will execute if the B
oolean condition is true
Else
'Optional statement will execute if t
he Boolean condition is false
End If
SELECT
CASE
DEFINITION:
The Select Case statement is a
collection of multiple case
statements, which allows executing
a single case statement from the list
of statements.
SYNTAX:
Select Case [variable or expression
]
Case value1 'defines the item or val
ue that you want to match.
// Define a statement to execute
Case value2 'defines the item or val
ue that you want to match.
// Define a statement to execute
Case Else
// Define the default statement if no
ne of the conditions is true.
End Select
IF-THEN
IF-THEN-ELSE
SELECT CASE
 LOOPING STATEMENTS
A loop statement allows us to execute a statement or group of statements multiple times and
following is the general form of a loop statement in most of the programming languages

DO-LOOP
FOR-NEXT

WHILE-END
WHILE
 FOR-NEXT
DEFINITION:
For loop most commonly used loop
because it is simple .
It is used when we want to perform
initialization , condition, and
increment/decrement operation in a
single line.
WHILE-END
WHILE
DEFINITION:
It is a pre test loop, it is used when
we don’t know the number of
iterations in advance. It is also
know as entry control loop.
DO-LOOP
DEFINITION:
It is a post test loop, it is used when
we want to execute loop body at
least once even condition is false.it
is also know as a exit control loop
