> "Ahhh device developer only provides example code for Labview and Matlab!", "Ahhh python isn't even supported for this device/application!"). What kind of devices or libraries do you use from LabVIEW but there isn't Python support or examples? If its an NI product, some are starting to get Python support DAQmx https://github.com/ni/nidaqmx-python/blob/master/nidaqmx_examples/ai_voltage_sw_timed.py https://github.com/ni/nidaqmx-python/blob/master/nidaqmx_exa...

Same story, no python. In fact, it's always a _SURPRISE_ when I see Python being supported. I would say after having gone through about a hundred major lab devices, less than 2% I found to be supporting Python. Importantly, example code should be made available (as it generally is for matlab, and labview) because creating things from scratch in a move-fast environment is a little too much.
