Re: programming (not sure where to post this)

If you don't have the installation media that was distributed in the Kit of Parts last year, then Java would probably be the easiest to get started with now.
Everything you ned is available online without license requirements.

No, LabVIEW is not compiled into C or C++.
That's not what Compiled means anyway. Compiled means reducing code to a machine-specific language (or virtual machine).
If went through an intermediate language before being compiled for some bizarre reason we'd use the word translated.
If it isn't reduced to machine-specific language, then we might use the word Interpreted.
