Having been in the IT industry for several years, I’ve tried a good number of programming languages; from various assembler languages to 4GL (4th Generation Languages) and finally OOP (Object Orientated Programming) languages. Some languages are easy, others are just downright impossible to do.
For the last couple of years I did mostly maintenance work on a Classic ASP website written in VBScript (Visual Basic Script). Fun at first, but later-on I start running into problems. With the evolution of web systems and web applications, the classic ASP platform is seriously lacking in controls needed to awe the client.
Finally I had enough and decided to look at alternatives. For starters, I needed to move over to the .Net framework and opted to give C# a go. It’s an elegant, simple and object orientated language that allows you to build a breath of applications. Easy to find your way around, with lots of code samples available from online communities. It seems like everyone was using C#. I was able to write classes, implement design practices to ensure the classes were clean and reusable.
