Editing JScript .NET (section)

=== Differences with C# ===
* JScript .NET does not require a [[Main function (programming)|main()]] [[function (programming)|function]] that the operating system must call directly when executing a JScript .NET application, as such, JScript .NET program flow can be based on global code.
* JScript .NET, because of its very loose type checking system can be very easy to learn, since the convention of explicit type declaration is not required at all.
* JScript .NET does not require explicit references to the .NET Framework Base Class Library, as certain functions found in earlier versions of JScript are present in JScript .NET (e.g. functions for finding the [[Trigonometric function|tangent]] of an angle for a [[right triangle]]).
* JScript .NET is closely linked to [[C syntax]], and is thus very easy to learn for [[C Sharp (programming language)|C#]], [[Java (programming language)|Java]] or [[C++]] developers.
* While JScript .NET can be used to create Windows Forms applications, JScript .NET will have some trouble, as delegates can only be consumed in JScript .NET and not created. Thus, custom events are hard to emulate in JScript .NET.
