VB.NET Tutorial 19 - Functions (Visual Basic 2008/2010)

In this tutorial, we cover what a Function is, how to create one and how to call one. Using a Function is a way of storing code and then executing it with a few letters. Be sure to subscribe for the upcoming tutorial on ByVal and ByRef if you want to discover the full potential of Functions.

Don't worry, you will eventually get it, if you didn't start from tutorial 1, i recommend you do so, if you did, don't lose hope, with enough patience and learning you will eventually get it. Happy programming, and keep trying even if it seems hard :)

because, the point of the video is to show you how you can return values by using functions.. they may seem a bit useless right now. but, as you start making bigger software.. believe me, you'll be using em alot.

[EatMyVariables]

you can still declare variables outside of a function and use them, if you want.

Which tutorials do you go into talking about private and public classes when creating your function?

Maybe its not this easy but, what about making it so when you click it, it changes the texts, but when you click it again it changes back so it alternates.

[NoxiousNuggets]

your a god :D thank you for making these tutorials . do you have a sockets tutorial

[ravenwatcher]

Why don't you allow play back on iPad. I went through the trouble of subscribing and I can't playback on my iPad. I don't understand.

[arkay]

what's the point in it though? when you clicked on it, it just changed the text in the label. What makes it different to say, label1.text =....?

Hi, thanks for the tutorials I found  them very helpful. I am working on my school project and it is a leave management system but I am stuck, I can not seem to find the correct coding so that the date time picker excluded weekends and public holidays. Can you assist me in that area. How do I exclude weekends and holidays from the leave applied for by employees.

What are the difference between functions and subs? Do they provide same actions?

@CovexCinema If you put in on fullscreen I can read it too, but don't like using fullscreen when I'm, at the same moment busy with VB.. :|

[filipedgb]

yeah man soz i was a noob back then, had no basis at all on programming. I'm on college now already learning c++ :)

[jmerridew]

What the fuck. I pay a professor a few grand to teach me this over a semester, and she botches the hell out of it. You made me understand it in less than 6 minutes.

Seriously, this is some bullshit. I've hired a hack.
