What is your strategy to prevent repetition of the same code? (Please read caption below)

So this sounds like a general programming question, not specifically related to LabVIEW.  It would help us to know how much programming experience you have in general.

Mr. Altenbach, would you please create a code so I can better understand?

[GRCK5000]

Not a lot of programming experience.  I have a lot to learn.

Not a bad thing.  We can mold you into a useless blob of Jell-o.  I mean a hardened veteran programmer.  Or at least not a raw recruit.

"a useless blob of jell-o" 🤣. I was like what? Thanks Bilko. I appreciate it. This is the main reason I am in here. I want to be like you guys.

My first thought is a Queued State Machine (I like JKI's).  Then the code is in one state that you call whenever/however you want.

I know exactly what you mean, but can you create a simple just so I can see how it works. I really want to learn these stuff.

See if this can give you some ideas....

Thank you very much, Mr. Altenbach for sharing the code. I spent quite some time trying to process it. I need an explanation on the part of the code shown below:

So when I use the probe where I have the red arrows. I was getting number from 65 to 70 and these numbers correspond to A to F, respectively. 

My question is how do you know these conversions? Do you have a table that you can share maybe?

From decimal to hexadecimal conversion: 10 corresponds to A, B >> 11, C >> 12, and so on. 

Can you please explain to me this conversion from the code?

Another method, make a For loop in LabVIEW where N=256, change the i terminal to a U8 number and do the conversion.
