Rube Goldberg Code

(Seen here)

 

So we take a scalar, built it into an array with one element, measure the array size, subtract one, then use that to index into the array.

 

 

 

It is amazing that a plain wire could probably do the same thing! Magic! The true power of LabVIEW.

But, is a wire "Scalable"  What if there were more elements wired to the build array?  (Delete from array would be the "Better" solution)  Smiley LOLSmiley LOLSmiley LOL

 Yes, of course! Fully!!!

 

(...If you enlarge the diagram or move nodes, the lenght of the wire scales automatically to cover the distance between the attachment sites.)

It's obviously a current boosting circuit, where the output is isolated from the input. Very common. Smiley Tongue

Of course I would have to see the code before making a final judgement, but this descriptions just makes me cringe.

 

"... multiple Event Structures under a while loop."

 

What kind of design pattern is this?? Where is "under"? 😮

Prepositions are very language dependant, and in this case i assume Under = Inside. (Under the span/cover of a loop, maybe?) It's just like i never understood why the english are angry WITH people? I'd say it's more natural to be angry AT people. 🙂

It's a great solution if you want to be able to handle several events at once if once takes a long time ...

Post the VI you're writing and we'll help you learn what you need to write a proper solution (mine is slightly obfuscated).


 

Ok so we know it was intentionally obfuscated, but now it's time for me to get help from the LabVIEW super-experts.

 

I was thinking of ways to improve it, and came up with this:

gt-lt-eq-labview.PNG

 

Can anyone give me a way to shrink it down even more?

Well uploading the assignment sheet makes it kinda obvious 😛

Having said that, we should probably expect another round of licence plate recognition posts soon.
