C# is the Best Language. C# is fast and good when we go for Web Based Application. VB is good when we go for the Windows Based Application.

depends upon the project C# and VB can be used. C# is better in web based applications(OOPS concept like java) Vb is better in windows based applications. you can use these two at any where in applications and both can be replaced by each other's code. there are some disadvantages and advantages with C# and vb. you must know before using them all the best.

One of the most obvious differences is that C# has XML documentation and VB does not (I think this is going to be rectified in the next version -but dont count on it) Essentially it could be argued (and is true to an extent) that if you can program in one then you can program in the other. I used to program on and off in VB6 but went for C# because it is cleaner and a true OO language. If you have the time then learn C# -you will always be able to use VB for any quirks it may have but quite honestly I doubt you will want to or need to. VB.net programmers will probably champion that language (quite understandibly) but I have yet to find one good reason to learn it over C# -except perhaps that there are slightly more jobs for VB.net than C# (Im in INDIA) at the moment -but this is changing quickly. Whatever you decide will not be a mistake, since learning the framework and real OO is perhaps the biggest obstacle you face.

Which language is better depends entirely on where, when, why and how you use them. Neither of your questions are specific enough to show any differences:

Question 1: Which language is given more preference c# or vb .net ?

That depends entirely on who you ask.

Sakthi Sat wrote:

Question 2: Which is faster c# or vb .net ?

They both compile to IL code, and that code becomes identical for equivalent program code, so there is no speed difference in the compiled code. They both use the .NET framework, so there is no speed difference in library calls.

see,C# is epecially designed for web projects.even though updation is on progress,VB is not proper for web deployment. more over XML compatibility is important in web applications.thus we choose C#.

That's like asking which religion is better. The correct answer depends on who you ask. The best language is the one you are most proficient in...in my opinion.
