So I had to learn intro to Visual Basic for a course at my college. Is it worth continuing my studies in for penetration testing? How would I use it?

:cringe: I don't program too much any more, but .net anything kind of sucks, but, I would imagine that knowing how VB.net works, it would help you find vulns in apps. (I'm really reaching for a good use)Quote:

.Net or Java hide too much from you, so even if you know "how to do something" you might still have no idea how it actually works.
My fav first langauge is C (c++ is good also).
