It is designed to foster rapid application development (RAD), where the application prototype can be developed first with less focus on writing complex codes in the initial stages of the development cycle. VB is considered an event-driven language that is easy to learn and write code. It allows programmers to define the behavior, function, and appearance of different objects by using graphical elements. It has evolved from the earlier version of ‘BASIC’ language, which stands for ‘Beginners All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code.’ Under the VB programming framework, software developers can use GUI-based features to alter sections of code by dragging and dropping objects. Visual Basic (VB) is an object-oriented language and development environment created by Microsoft in 1991.
