Hi all! I'm in a pickle now, for being kinda newbie in programming, though I know how to write in C, C++ and ChucK, so please help me out :)

See I must develop a software that classifies data, I'll be given a lot of info of a enterprise and the software must have a search bar so the user can find someone, that works in the enterprise, by their birthdate, ID, or whatever... So my question is.. should I do it on Java or Visual Basics? Why?


Thanks :).
 
Many internal business applications are written in Visual Basic, especially because it is fast to develop with. On the other hand Java may take slightly longer to develop but the options that one has when programming are greater. VB is limited to systems where .NET can run (which is Windows and Mono for Ubuntu), Java can run anywhere, if there's a JVM.

It comes down to your preference really. Which language are you more comfortable with.
 
I'd personally do it in C# over VB, but like Nokami said, it's mainly what you're comfortable programming with.
