LOLCODE vs. Tcl vs. Visual Basic vs. jscoverage Comparison Chart

LOLCODE can interpret files from standard input or from a file. Spaces are used to demarcate tokens in the language, although some keyword constructs may include spaces. Multiple spaces and tabs are treated as single spaces and are otherwise irrelevant. Indentation is irrelevant. A command starts at the beginning of a line and a newline indicates the end of a command, except in special cases. Multiple commands can be put on a single line if they are separated by a comma (,). In this case, the comma acts as a virtual newline or a soft command break. Multiple lines can be combined into a single command by including three periods or the Unicode ellipsis character (u2026) at the end of the line. Lines with line continuation can be strung together, many in a row, to allow a single command to stretch over more than one or two lines. As long as each line is ended with three periods, the next line is included, until a line without three periods is reached.

Visual Basic is an object-oriented programming language developed by Microsoft. Using Visual Basic makes it fast and easy to create type-safe .NET apps. Visual Basic focuses on supplying more of the features of the Visual Basic Runtime (microsoft.visualbasic.dll) to .NET Core and is the first version of Visual Basic focused on .NET Core. Many portions of the Visual Basic Runtime depend on WinForms and these will be added in a later version of Visual Basic. .NET is a free, open-source development platform for building many kinds of apps. With .NET, your code and project files look and feel the same no matter which type of app you're building. You have access to the same runtime, API, and language capabilities with each app. A Visual Basic program is built up from standard building blocks. A solution comprises one or more projects. A project in turn can contain one or more assemblies. Each assembly is compiled from one or more source files.
