before you can say, you need to understant a little bit of history in programming.
programming lang, strating with fortran was developed to enable the computer to be used as a reusable calculator. this makes sence since you dont have to keep swithing the computer everytime to do the same job. in those days , a lot of lang were developed, each with is distint adv and disavantages. basic became a very popular lang then because it is simple to learn and prog. many proffesional programmers normally encounter problems programming long and structured programs. thus after two two or three initial lang., the c lang was developed . it is i true structured lang and thus became very popular among proffessional programmers. most operating systems are still written in c lang. in the late 70s and earlly 80s, the object oriented method of programming became the defacto. in other to still enjoy the power of c, c# was developed. it is a c progarmming lang with object oriented prog. about the early 90s, microsoft develop vb to be the graphical users interface verison of basic lang. thus continued with the popularity of basic. java was then developed i the early 90s to be a net version of c#. thus write once , use anywhere gave it taht popuparity it enjoys. vb, then stands to the challange and develope vb.net, the net version of vb. to know which is  easier depends on your knowlege of the parent lang

Cool history lesson, but was you trying to refer to C++ instead of C#?  C++ is an improved version of C in the sense that it can be OO, but C++ can also be procedural.  I am sure most would agree that C# was built by taking the efficient aspects of Java and C++; But more so from Java - the APIs are pretty similar.   Grin Grin Grin

What is the question @Dr. Lorenz ?

I am appalled by the language and tone i see here - if you are a professional or even a serious mediocre programmer you certainly wouldn't be talking like this. 
Anyway going back to the question. Personally I don't think Java is harder than .NET (i.e C Sharp), it's all about what language you are acquainted to. In my experience people tend to stick with the language they used as a base for learning programming.  And if you can program in Java, programming in C/J Sharp shouldn't be so much of a headache as the syntax is almost the same.

Hope this helps.

The question is this: Can a code be converted to sound? I don't know if you understand, but holler back and i'll try to explain more.

Off the top of my head I'd say yes.
I'm not very much into multimedia programming ,

but I'm aware that the information(code) is in a quantized format hence the sound also has to be quantized however sound by nature is analog ,
this is the stuff sound codecs and the likes are made.

More details please ,

Java is not that harder its all about getting the fundamental concepts if you don't grab that then chances are you might never know Java but .NET is probably quicker to learn but not necessarily simpler

Hey!!! Nothing is really hard. It depends on the spirit with which you approach it. Guess you now understand that .NET is just a platform and you have stuff like C#.NET, VB.NET. The choice you will make in the end really depends on what you want to do with what you are learning, cos some languages are better suited to some things than others.  Find out what exactly you want to do, and find a language that is well suited to that kind of application. I write C#.NET, and I think its the best language since - man landed on the moon (my own opinion OH!!!). I have a friend who writes Java and he thinks that every other language is plain and simple English. So??? Make a choice. All the best.

It will probably involve writing a parser to do some mapping - a Linguist would be handy  Grin Grin Grin But yes by all means tell me more Dr Lorenz

@nolongTing

Looks like the more answer i get, the more confused i become. First of all, what is a parser? I've actually come across it somewhere, but can't remember. So more light on that please. And mapping? I don't think we're talking about Geography here are we?  Grin Grin

@Ghenghis

Quantized? More confusion! Grin. Don't get me wrong, i have a little idea of what you're talking about, but i guess the terms is what am not. Since sound by nature is analog, and code is digital, is that why sound has to be quantized? So as to convert it to digital?

@both of you

Let's put my question in another way: Can code be embedded in sound? In which case, the code will work independently and with the sound?

Hey Dr? Keep praying for me  Grin Grin Grin Grin you like to pick brains don't you  Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Well, its a good question but your question is quite ambiguous, so let me ask two simple counter-questions:

1. What type of sound? Music, speech? Nature? Or Any Sound?
2. What is your overall aim?  For example do you want to use sound to control something (Control System)

look forward to hearing from you

Hey! Y should i keep praying for you? Tu est malade? Grin Grin Perhaps you have a la tete  Grin Grin. Pick brains? Ah, i only asked a question o. Like you said, its a good question and one you didn't give me answer for.  Shocked Shocked

To answer your questions,
1. Its any sound actually, but specifically music. Y'know, like in music production. Strings, Percussion etc etc
2. I like this one, My overall aim is to create a simple program and embed it in a single sound. Chi ke na!  Grin Grin

I think we have to talk for you to really understand. U're gonna love what i've got in mind. Anyway, tell me what you think.

Hey Dr Lorenz, Você manequim!,  Grin Cheesy Wink Smiley Ok! oh well sound is Analogue (continuous waves) and computers are digital (discrete) so this means you will need a software/hardware solution.  You will need to interface an ADC (Analogue to Digital Converter) to the sound (input) then you can make use of the reading - output signal.  ADCs and DACs can be programmed usually in Hardware code like MIPs (very labourious) or something like that.  Some can also be programmed in C but when it comes to which one or models, I don't know.  Any way that's my opinion, could be wrong, good luck!

U speak French? That's cool. Wonder how many things you know. Anyway, its like my little project is becoming quite laborious to you. I thought it was a small thing before o. I thought you could help me out here but it looks like u can't  Grin. Let me ask you a few,

1. Sound being played in a pc can't be regarded as digital?
2. Is there no simpler way of just embedding the program in the sound? It can be a software solution, since you already have the pc.

I need an answer, i know its possible, so lets work this thing out together, except of course you're no more in the mood for this challenge. I used to think programmers and software developers LIVE for challenges. Hit me back,

MIDI is a digitized format that works with instruments ,

are you thinking voice recognition or commands, its definitely possible

you'd have to have a A/D converter which might simply be a device like the microphone, digitized signals  can then be made to trigger instructions.

This is all theory, though the concept works well in mobile phones that do voice dialing.

,  or is it security equipment, like an alarm triggered based on auditory signals ?

Thank you for the link @Kobojunkie. Although i couldn't understand a damn word that was said lol. You see, I don't really want to build it myself considering the fact that i can't program. Perhaps you guys could do it for me   Grin. To answer your question, the idea is to program a code in a sound or perhaps set of sounds that will stop a particular action from taking place. Does that help? Let me know,

@Ghenghis
Am not thinking of voice recognition or commands, or security equipment. Rather like i explained above, it's about embedding a program in a sound to stop an action from taking place.
