C++ might be more common in the real world among professional (and amateur)
programmers, but LabVIEW is certainly widespread. It's used in many applications by engineers who aren't necessarily programmers by trade or training. Knowledge of LabVIEW is sort of a "hidden" skill that doesn't show up in a lot of job requirements, because it's not understood as anything special by the people who write the requirements.
If you're planning to enter the job market as a programmer, you should certainly know C++. But you should just as certainly know languages in other categories, like Python and LabVIEW.
