Programming in Visual Basic 2015: The Very Beginner's Guide: by Jim McKeown, Ph.D.

This is a hands-on guide for those with little or no programming experience. It starts with the very basics of input, processing and output. It moves on to conditional statements, loops, procedures and functions. There's a chapter on file input/output, a chapter on arrays, one on objects and events, a fun one on graphics and sound and an introduction to databases. There are lots of sample programs and examples. Sample program are available from the author. And, for instructors, there's a testbank.
