Programmatically create Incrementer and Decrementer

[Vij@y]

Some people who are new to LV (Like me) were struggle to implement the Incrementer or decrementer logic programmatically. For instance, at some places we need to execute the code in a sequential manner, we will badly need of this logic. Thing is, Its so easy If you have just follow the steps what I post here.

Steps:

1. Place the Increment operator from the functon palatte

2. Create a indicator for the increment operator

3. Now create a Local variable from Indicator and give it as a input to the Increment operator

You are done now. If you want to realize the logic for Decrementer, simply replace the increment operator with decrement operator. 

If this Idea witnessed already, Kindly ignore this.

Have you used a shift register? Please dont try to do this with local variables

[Vij@y]

Hi muks,

Yes I used and good familiar about shift registers. Here I just want to explain, Shift registers can be mimic programmatically.

Is this an Idea or a sample code? Honestly I didn't get what you are trying to propose, can you please explain bit more about your idea?

If my understanding is right this is one of the most important things that we must aviod while programming

Trust me, the shift register is way more efficient and follows data flow very well.

Now the point of the Idea Exchange is to give NI feedback of what we think could make LabVIEW better.  Just look through the ideas in the Completed category and you will see what we mean.  You didn't really state anything here to make the LabVIEW environment any better.

Cant say it better

Off topic- Has anyone suggested having a kudos button in the comment section

Stil off topic - Yes, that has come up many times...

@muks  I thought this many a times when I really want to appreaciate few comments (Specially when reading explanation given my AristosQueue and badly want to hit Kudos). Excuse me..

Dear all,

Thanks for your suggestions. Ofcourse its an Off topic. Will take a glance over this forum and come up with a good idea to exchange.
