If u think people asking here are stupid, then I must say it's you only.
Probably u do not know how to do googling; so I am providing you the search result .Just go to the link   -  http://www.google.co.in/#hl=en&source=hp&q=virub&aq=f&aqi=g2&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&fp=90055547bc024ace

disgusting!!!!!!!!!!!!

You're saying somebody is stupid because of what Google gives you as search results for a word YOU want to find out about?

How does that work?

Learn some manners please, we're all trying to help.

The only kind of link I can find for "virub" is a syllabus for a technical degree which is probably the document giving you headaches (it's really not hard to find using Google).  I think it's a spelling mistake in the PDF document.

I've never heard of "virub" in combination with LabVIEW.

[sukhiray]

@ Intaris, exactly, I also have never heard and neither could find any related result.
But a student have shown me a question paper where "Virub" was asked to be defined and compared with VIs in context of virtual instrumentation based on LabVIEW. The syllabus of a technical university based on Delhi(India) also contain this word. The link of that syllabus what you got in Google search was already given in my 1st post.
That is why I am confused. What can be the word which can be misspelled as "Virub"?? Anyone any idea?

"Virus" ???

Ask your student how he found the word.  (And what exactly does "question paper" mean?)

And honestly, does it really matter what that word means?  It is an odd word, possibly a typo, in the middle of a very long, very strange document.  And no one has found any other instance of this word by googling it.

If you really want to know what it means, then try finding and contacting the names that are listed at the top of that document.  I think even the word "VIS" right nearby is rather strange as well.  Is it a poorly formatted variation of VI's?

Well sometimes it is handy to be dyslexic since all words look that way to me so I read that as

sub VI

whcih would make sense in the context of comparing VIs with sub-VIs.

Are weg etting close?

PS I always thought of the sylabuses as a form of deception. THey use all of those high faluting words that you have to take to the course to find out what they mean only find out later I wasn't intersted in the first place.

My appologies to my fellow achademic types. I really need to get home again.

The sentence is "Introduction to Virtual Instrumentation: graphical programming data flow & Advantages of VI techniques, VIS & Virub VIS loops & charts , arrays".

I'm pretty sure as Ben says, that it's supposed to be "VIS and Sub VIS" or "VIs and Sub-VIs".

Just a typo.
