In the Visual Basic program, a statement is a complete set of instructions. Keywords, operators, variables, literal values, constants, and expressions are all possible.
Statements could be classified as
- Declaration statements are the statements in which you name a variable, constant, or function and indicate its data type.
- Executable statements are the statements that start activities. These statements can be used to invoke a method or function, to loop or branch over code blocks, or to give values or expressions to variables or constants. In the latter situation, it is referred to as an Assignment statement.
Statements of Declaration
Procedures, properties, variables, arrays, and constants are named and defined using the declaration statements. When you declare it, you can specify the data type, access level, and scope of a programming element.
Variables, constants, classes, enumerations, structures, interfaces, modules, procedures, procedure parameters, external procedure references, function returns, properties, operators, events, and delegates are all programming elements that can be declared.
