Then more complex combined projects that integrate multiple elements of the above.
In LabVIEW, at least, all of these examples (and more) already exist. If you go under Help->Find Examples, the NI Example finder will appear, which contains sample code for almost anything you can do in LV, including many FIRST functions. It's a great resource, but I don't think many people know about it.

As for the other stuff, I'd be happy to write some example code in other areas and contribute to a Knowledge Base. I think it sounds like a great idea.
