The Arduino/LabVIEW class on Friday 6-9-17 at 7 PM that I am hosting would be best described as a parallel learning Arduino learning opportunity, The programming instructions set I will be using in this class is graphical flow-chart like language LabVIEW, which has recently been ported so as to target Arduino devices by a third party company. Using LabVIEW, there is no text code requirement to take command of Arduino, however we should be able to access all of those same ports Art was discussing. My Arduino/LabVIEW class will also be entry level, with no previous Arduino experience required, However, for best results, please bring you laptop with LabVIEW loaded and appropriate USB cable to the Friday night training
So the two similar Arduino programming courses constructively agree, and are in no way competing with one another for anyone’s time. If you want the best Arduino learning curve, I highly recommend checking out both classes. There are advantages to Arduino’s native language (Bill’s class), and LabVIEW (James uses it for everything he can). Just a short while back, I took one of Bill’s arduino intros, and found it to be agreeable, helpful for me, and fun.
