#LabVIEW

LabVIEW is a graphical programming language mainly used for measurement technology.

###Factoid: LabVIEW used to store Bools in 2 Bytes

Note: since LabVIEW is strictly graphical the sizes are in Labview Primitives

###Lenght 1 Snippet

LabVIEW is used in 2 windows, the left one (Block Diagramm) where the programming happens and the right one (Front Panel) for in and output. Putting a control on the Block Diagramm automatically puts the input on the Front Panel

###Lenght 2 Snippet

there is actually no working programm of size 2 apart from just putting 2 controls or constants, so ill add another fact.

LabVIEW works exceptionally well with Arrays. They can be automatically indexed when put into a for loop and you can easily use basic arithmetic and binary operations on arrays and numerics of different dimensions.

###Lenght 3 Snippet

I just realized i could use express VIs but that feels like cheating. They are basically full written out programms that get compressed into 1 VI. I might put one in if anyone wants to see it, so leave a comment.

###Lenght 5 Snippet

This is one of the array operations one can do.

###Lenght 6 Snippet

Another fact:

The size of a full LabVIEW installation can be well over 20 GB.
