Event driven programming is a type of programming where the program is determined by a string of events. Common events include mouse click, double mouse click and pressing certain keys. Here are some descriptions of popular event driven programming software.

VB: Visual basics is a graphical and event driven programming software that is developed by Microsoft and is one of the easiest to use because of its simplicity. Not only does Visual Basics allow programmers to create simple GUI applications, but it also allows you to create quite complex programs too.

Because visual basics is a graphical piece of software, it makes it very easy to create things by just simply dragging and dropping things onto the form. (E.g. Text boxes, labels , buttons, etc) which can then have their attributes changed to suite the programmers needs. Because of this, less code is required from the programmer which can save a lot of time.
