What is visual basic?

[Ruby17]

Visual Basic is a "visual programming" environment for developing Windows (also Web now) applications. Visual Basic makes it possible to develop complicated applications very quickly. The programmer designs windows graphically, drags program elements from the Visual Basic Toolbox and writes basic code for each element. Visual Basic is "event-driven" which means that procedures are called automatically when the end user chooses menu items, clicks the mouse, moves objects on the screen, etc.

Visual Basic, created by Microsoft for building stand alone Windows-based programs, is derived heavily from Basic. Developers can use it for quickly building GUI applications. If you're looking for a fast way to build programs, Visual Basic may be just what you looking for.
