In regards to data structures I find making cluster type defs to be easy in LabVIEW and handle all the use cases I ever ran into. I guess I am curious what data type you are looking to use that LabVIEW can't do.
I agree LabVIEW code can look like spaghetti code. That is where good coding structure comes into play to make sure that is avoided so your code is easy to follow. Generally bundling data into cluster type defs and creating subVIs can help with keeping your code clean.
