Labview was the first thing that came to my mind as well. everyone thought I would love it (I am an electrical engineer) and assumed i would relate to a schematic representation to code. some may like it, but I find it far too verbose to draw code with wires and functions. I find that I far prefer writing a for loop with text than putting a window in and hiding everything behind drop downs, hidden windows and wires that go off the screen.

Academic classes that introduce Labview tend to focus on basic programming tasks. This is not a good way to showcase its benefits.
