Feedback: Include a section on literals in VB.NET documentation

[supernova-eng]

The VB.NET documentation does not seem to have any information about how to provide literal values (numbers, characters, strings etc.). A new section is badly needed. It's taken me about 1/2 hour to not find the correct syntax for an unsigned 32-bit integer in hexadecimal.

@mairaw @rpetrusha @BillWagner let me know what you think of this

[mairaw]

@rpetrusha can you please take a look at this one?

[rpetrusha]

Each of the numeric types discuss literal assignments in a Literal Assignments section of that type's documentation; see, for example, the Integer data type. What search keywords were you using to find information on assigning a literal to an integer, @botcrane?

[mairaw]

We won't be able to get a response from @botcrane 😄. Those are the old UserVoice comments that got ported. @dend can you please close this?

[rpetrusha]

Thanks; I didn't realize @botcrane was a bot, though it's pretty obvious. I agree; I think that the documentation is thorough, so the issue can be closed, @dend.
