User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐Very good book I would recommend to Labview programmers who have taken or are about to take the LV Intermediate courses. The early chapters give a concise, but thorough definition of all the key Labview programming structures. Chapter 3 on state machines gave ideas on how to greatly expand the capabilities of a state machine by using an event matrix. Later chapters get into some of the mechanics of activeX and .net. It also discusses using object oriented techniques in Labview. Only problems I had were some block diagram pictures were missing some of their lines, and the examples on the attached CD were based on a much older version of Labview. However, these issues were minor and I would highly recommend the book.

⭐A good reference book on hard to do and remember programming

⭐Not a book for LabVIEW beginners, unless they are (fairly) accomplished programmers as well. To me, a beginner and not much (anymore) of a programmer, it appears to be a well laid out and thought out book. I WILL enjoy it.

⭐Disc is quite dated.

⭐I was not impressed. In my opinion it is tot all that advanced. Was not what I was looking for. I learn more by online research.

⭐Good book

⭐This book is in good condition. Well written for advanced people. I benefited much from this book.

⭐You’ll definitely learn from this book, but I’m not crazy about it. It’s already at least 10 years old, so many new features of LV are not covered here, or shortcut keys which have changed. The order of material sometimes seems out of place. For example discussing Project files or Global variables early in the introduction seems out of place, as they are unnecessary for most basic VI’s.This seems to be a “breadth first” approach. For example in the initial discussion of front panel controls, it goes into details on refnums and paths, which seems prematurely detailed.While discussing advanced topics, the examples all show terminals shown as icons, which clutters block diagrams. I don’t know many LV programmer who views terminals as large icons, particularly as there has never been a zoom function.It was an oversight to NOT describe how the context-sensitive multi-tool mode of the Tool Palette works.In discussing error clusters initially, a fair amount of detail is provided about how they are used for exception handling. But there is no mention of their extensive use in program flow control. Very weird.Perhaps it is my particular eBook, but the vast majority of the book is in black/white, except for the cover and a couple diagrams.So I think it’s worth a read, I can’t say this is a great book at all. It could have used some extensive editing.

⭐The contents of the book have been most likely very good when it was released (back in 2001). It would have been a perfect follow-up book after an introductory LabVIEW course / tutorial.Unfortunately now (as of 2013) it is clearly outdated. The book leaves reader to wonder, what is still the same and what has changed. On the other hand, many things are familiar even now on LabVIEW, but then again, the book describes Windows 95 and NT as the latest operating systems.Even if everything in the book is still true (it may be), there are now more features in LabVIEW which the book obviously does not cover.I cannot recommend buying the book, but if you are learning LabVIEW and have easy access to it, it is worth a read.

⭐Anche se i contenuti sono avanzati, le versioni di labview attuali presentano scenari diversi, inoltre non sono approfonditi gli argomenti trattati.Utile per concetti generali come multithreading etc. ma poco per chi cerca approfondimenti nelle attuali versioni del linguaggio grafico labVIEW.Bon déjà c’est en anglais pour un kilo d’informations et édité en 2006; ca commence a dater et c’est cher (116 Euros) Couverture carton rigide pour 500 pages. Il reprend les notions de base de Labview et différents exemples assez top: machines a états, drivers .NET … Le CD est obsolète: il s’accroche à Labview 5.1 et ces VI ne sont plus acceptés aujourd’hui par la version LV 2014 chargeable sur le site de NI. Heureusement le site de l’éditeur crcpress.com met a disposition un .ZIP des VI 5.1 remis à niveau pour être acceptés par la version 2014 (ouf !).Very good book. Highly recommended.

⭐Good condition
