There is a gain or purpose to every language, otherwise it...wouldn't exist.

It might not be in your personal interest to learn it, but for someone else it could be entirely practical.

Okay. How is that relevant to the statement that I asked you to justify?

How I see it:

Languages can't be crappy or amazing. They just are. Depending on the society that surrounds that language, they can be practical, or not. If you're in a place where everyone speaks English, why would you go out of your way to learn chinese? It is completely impractical in the situation. Chinese language does have a purpose, but it doesn't apply to particular situations.

I am assuming he is talking about Visual Basic being crappy. It's for beginners to start.


Just for some reason, Gman took a 'big boy' step or just copied the code ;-P
