what do you mean by porting MATLAB into LABVIEW

[sukanya]

Hi,

I'm using some image processing file in MATLAB. Someone suggested that I port these files into LABVIEW. I have no idea what that means. Can someone explain what porting into LABVIEW literally means?

Thanks

Literally? It means rewriting the code in LabVIEW. Totally different language. Also different execution style. Practically? It probably means just calling the Matlab script from LabVIEW using the Matlab script node. Check the LabVIEW Help for more information on calling Matlab from LabVIEW.

In the latest versions of LabVIEW, NI introduced the Mathscript node. It is a textual language that is compatible with m-files. For more information, see this link:

Now, depending of the m-script you have, you can run it in LabVIEW. Here is an abridged list of function is LV:

Hope this helps.
