I can't quite tell if this is a request for recommended books on LabVIEW, but in case it is, try going to Amazon and type in LabVIEW. There are a wide variety to choose from.

I was a reviewer on several of them, and generally, I'd say the for Everyone book is a good overall choice.

There are also advanced books that focus on other topics, but use LV for the language to explore the topic. To find those, search for things like LabVIEW control, or LabVIEW fuzzy logic.

For vision, by the way, I'd recommend the Vision concepts manual that is probably already on your hard drive.

My favorite programming book I have read so far is Head First Design Patterns. We used it in our software component design class at MSOE. It's not as formal as the Gang of Four book, but If you've never even heard of Design Patterns before, it is a great book. It uses examples for everything, like ordering and making pizzas to represent the Abstract Factory and Factory Method patterns, or a video game involving ducks both live and wooden for the Strategy pattern. It is geared for Java but they might have written a C++ version. It is the first and only school book so far I have had the urge to read :)

I want to learn C++, so I'm making my way through Sam's Teach Yourself C++ in 21 Days, which has a pretty gimmicky title but reads quite well, seeing as I'm a programming novice.
