Back in the day...being able to easily do what you just described was a pipe dream, a fantasy.

Over 25 years ago I worked for a company and was charged with developing our in-house version of a product similiar to Labview. After spending many man-years worth of corporate wealth we released this product and about a week later Labview 1.0 came out.

Many people do not really understand what a gift to students Labview, PTC, Autodesk, and others have provided.
