I "learned" coding with LabView. It's "graphical programming". After three years and ever-increasingly complex programs, I was longing to use a text-based editor.
LV is super practical for "quick and dirty" device control, but beyond that, it's an inefficient grind of connecting things.
- klingonopera 7y agoIf anyone's using LV and would like to use C/C++ (without LV-CVI), there are C libs included in the DAQ driver package. This also has the advantage of not requiring a LabVIEW license at all.
