int TheEnd = 3;

Or ...
double simple = 8;

Well I don't think that's all that great.
double Wonderful = 2^3;
looks like it should set Wonderful to 1.

I think you are on point(ers)?

That is correct, because it remainds us all on the power of C++.
The pure power of of pointer arithmetics and function pointers isnt to top.

They keep telling me that C++ code can be very fast, but it takes a very long time to code.

So, you're in some kind of hurry.
Well - it take less time to eat a raw potato right our of the garden - but it taste a whole lot better if you wash it and bake it first, then eat it . . . although it takes a bit longer.
Of course - knowing what you're doing helps, too, but that's rather judgemental.

Personally, I prefer the potatoes raw - wash, peel, eat like an apple.

Demon! Go Back to your VB6 !

Slow to code, but with the potential to fail very, very quickly.

well.. you can still do it with ints!
int x = 2;
int y = 3;
Console.WriteLine(x ^ y)
Works fine by me!

aren't you the lucky one

Are you sure?
'^' is the C# bitwise XOR operator, so you'll get 1, not 8...([PickyPickyMode]if you add the missinge semicolon so it'll compile[/PickyPickyMode])

Indeed!

From the Math.Pow bit, I assume not!

Everything to do with VB is a joke!

I only miss the InputBox, albeit as it's.net you can use it anyway referencing Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.InputBox.

Well, if that's the syntax, then that's the syntax. Try writing in Finnish; the syntax of that really will drive you crazy.

You could always suggest it as a language enhancement here[^].

That's a great example of the cruft you find in VB code, instead of:
double AnyoneButVBProgrammers = 8;

It's something about the journey in general, not its end point in this case. I'm pretty sure the famous programmer Confucius said something like this too.

But in VB you don't write:
double Wonderful = 2^3;
That's (mostly) C#.
In VB, you write:
Dim Wonderful As Double = 2^3
If your problem is excessive verbosity, then VB is not your friend.
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.
