The First few steps in Progamming : Identifying the Problem and Creating a Flowchart.

In last weeks newsletter Brie got an idea from a Video what LabVIEW can do, in this week we will talk about it a little more, so Brie and her manager can decide whether it's the right fit for her current requirements.

We’ve all been there.?You have a new idea, a new project you want to start, but you’re not sure where to begin.?

If you’re like Brie, you’ll start by creating an initial flowchart of how the program will run.?This is a great way to break your program down into smaller, more manageable pieces and helps to organize your thoughts.??

Programming in LabVIEW is fundamentally built off of exactly this ideology.?If we as engineers and scientists can program the way we think, we’ll be able to more easily create complex systems without requiring the vertical expertise of a computer scientist.??

Once you get your bearings and start learning LabVIEW, you’ll find that it isn’t as hard as it looks.?Especially if you have a background in another programming language like C++ or Python.?The inherent drag-and-drop style of LabVIEW makes it extremely easy for someone with zero programming experience to jump right in and start developing programs with little effort, plus you can reuse the same IP you've already developed on those programming environments.

Some of the other key features that make LabVIEW so easy include:

1. Seamlessly connect to all your hardware,

whether it's NI hardware or Third Party Hardware, LabVIEW was built from the beginning to connect to and collect measurements from test and measurement hardware, whether connecting to NI hardware using NI drivers or 3rd party hardware

2. Quickly create professional user interfaces,

With LabVIEW, you get more than just acquisition and analysis; you can also easily create user interfaces that display measurement-specific data and test results within the same environment. LabVIEW contains a full collection of test-specific drag-and-drop controls and indicators that intuitively describe your system to engineers, technicians, or operators.

3. Visualize and Understand your Data with Comprehensive Built-in Analysis Capabilities,

With LabVIEW, you can quickly and easily analyze your data using more than 850 built-in signal processing, analysis, and mathematics functions. Choose how you implement analysis in your LabVIEW application, whether inline or offline, to fully customize your algorithms, make better measurements, or get results faster.

and probably Brie is asking, if I choose LabVIEW, how can I get started?

there are about 13 LabVIEW courses, everything from basic skills to niche industry requirements, plus there are 3 LabVIEW Certifications to verify an Engineers skill proficiency with the software,

and most importantly with regards to the current situation we have various Course formats;

Online Training, Virtual Training, Classroom Training and Onsite Training.

and not only that, subscribing to NI LabVIEW will also get Brie's company this special Service program.

there's an entire ecosystem around LabVIEW and that's why you get more for what you pay for.
