Anyway he is adding marks for anybody who use difficult and time consuming programming languages like Haskel, assembler, C etc and so not going to be giving me any extra marks for using VB.Net.
To try and boost my marks I want to try creating a project using multiple programming languages. Can anybody give me a link to something that could help give me a starting block?
How about coding directly against the codedom in .net? No one could claim that was easy
, but you could generate IL, VB, C#, C++ and J++ code ( and maybe some others? ) from a single source base which might impress.
http://www.15seconds.com/issue/020917.htm has an overview but there are many others around
Don't know if i'd try to do that with a compression algorithm mind you....least you could debug in your language of choice i suppose
