[Year 12 SofDev] Programming Language

[Mark KELLY]

Hi Chris

Languages are revised annually. In August 2011, Paula said on the SD list
that VB6 was approved for 2011.

I have heard no further announcements on the matter, and the list of
languages on the VCAA
website<http://www.vcaa.vic.edu.au/Pages/correspondence/bulletins/2010/June/vce_study.aspx#4>
does
not seem to have changed since 2010.

So unless Paula cares to say otherwise, VB6 still seems to be acceptable.

And since I'd say none of our kids gets near encapsulation, inheritance etc
in their 2 simple programming outcomes, VB6 still does the job nicely.
