Help me on this program

So this is a homework given to you to actually learn LabVIEW?

There are "Training resources" offered in the header of the LabVIEW board to help you in learning LabVIEW. You really should take them…
First bit of (basic) help: don't call a VI "circuit"! It's code, separated in a frontpanel and a blockdiagram…

My teacher gave this to us without introducing us to the labiew so i'm kinda lost. The job is to delivered on sunday so i am a bit desperate.
So you have still 2 more days to solve your homework and earn your points…
Hurry up!
General advice:
- We will not solve other people's homework.
- We will help for specific problems and specific questions.
- You will get even more help when you show your own effort by attaching your code (VI, not just images)! This way we will tel you what you need to improve…
Your data file is not formatted correctly. There is no delimiter between the X and Y data. Both numbers are in the same column so the Read Delimited Spreadsheet VI will need some extra processing to split the XY pairs apart.
I read the file as strings, then split on the space between the X and Y to make a proper 2D array. The file is just a curve and it appears the code is trying to find discontinuities in the slope but it's so poorly written I can't be sure.
I've attached the data in 2 columns so you can at least see what the data looks like. As far as explaining what the code is supposed to do goes... I don't even think the person who wrote it can answer that. 🤔

Hello everybody. I have a university paper on this circuit and I have to write a report to interpret and describe this circuit using the data and circuit shown below. Can someone help me to describe this circuit? I really need help because I have difficulties in understanding it!

So who wrote this code (It's not a circuit!)?
If you wrote it, you better be able to describe and understand it.
If your teacher wrote it, why would you need to describe it?
Any LabVIEW programmer here would tell you that this code is extremely convoluted, overly complicated and full of Rube Goldberg constructs. Very poorly written! A better assignment would be to first clean up and simplify the code.
Some hints:
- Get rid of the express VI, it is completely unnecessary.
- There is no need for dynamic data wires
- Eliminate all the dead code.
- Consolidate all the duplicate code.
- Two instances of "array subset" are NOT needed to get two columns. (one "index array" is all you need!)
- Array subset on a 1D array as wired near the top right of your diagram can be replaced by a wire.
- Learn about autoindexing and conditional tunnels. Once you do, you can get rid of the case structure and shift register and greatly simplify the FOR loop..
After doing all that, the diagram will be so simple that describing it will be trivial. 😄
