This document provides an overview of LabVIEW, including its software, instrumentation, control systems applications, and advantages. LabVIEW is a graphical programming language that uses icons instead of text. It was developed by National Instruments in 1988 and is used widely by scientists and engineers. The program, called a virtual instrument or VI, contains a front panel user interface and block diagram code. Wiring between functions uses different styles for varying data types.

Lab VIEW is a graphical programming
language that uses icons instead of lines of
text to create programs.
. LabVIEW program called Virtual Instrument
produced by National Instruments in 1988.
. LabVIEW is a much loved tool of the scientist
and engineer.
. Jeff Kodosky is the “Father of LabVIEW”.

5. . Lab VIEW programs are called virtual
instruments, or VIs, because their appearance
and operation imitate physical instruments,
such as oscilloscopes and multimeters etc.
. After build the user interface, add code using VIs
and structures to control the front panel objects.
The block diagram contains this code.

LabVIEW is written on graphical structure.
While in LabVIEW summation is a function and it is
represent by following symbol.
In LabVIEW, such mathematical and logical functions are
represented graphically.
