Visual Basic.NET Programming. Beginner Lesson 4. Variable Data Types

This is the fourth in a series of computer science video tutorials for beginners, about programming with Visual Basic.NET (VB.NET) in Visual Studio. In this lesson, you will learn how to use some different variable data types, including Integer, Decimal, Boolean and Date. A naming convention for these different data types is recommended. You will also learn how to format the output of a message on the screen by means of the special constant vbNewLine.

As someone who is trying to get into VB as a very ancient QBasic coder, these lessons are absolutely fantastic. The differences to QB are quite stark but there is also much familiarity

Thank you so much for making these tutorials! I am a brand new A level Computer Science student studying Visual Basic for the very first time. I do not have much programming experience except with pseudocodes, MIT's Scratch, and a bit of gamemaker's GML . I always wanted to be a games designer, I hope this is a right step for my career!
Thanks for creating these simple step by step easy to follow tutorials! I hope you are considering to continue making these!

Your videos saved my grade. I ended with a B thanks to these, the regular instruction just wasn't clicking with me.

Absolutely brilliant Kevin! Just discoverd all the other goodies on this channel - will explore them when I have finished your VB course. I haven't touched VB since version 6! Yes, I'm an old hack from the days of the Commodore PET and VIC 20 days.

Can we use decimal data type instead of integer even if we don't want to put a decimal point in actual value?

WHAT!? No global variables in .NET? All variables have to be local in scope now? They got rid of the General Declarations section? How do you declare a global variable now? Create a public class with public shared variables? Why not just leave in the General Declarations section like it was?
