The learning process for LabView takes wildly different paths for different people. I've watched complete novices pick it up in basically no time.

On the other hand, it was very difficult for me. I think that's probably because I was learning it from someone who knew it inside and out and thus could do everything quickly, but who was very poor at transferring that knowledge to someone who couldn't follow it that quickly. Most of my time was spent doing two things: unlearning a lot of what I learned about procedural programming, and getting used to the multilayered view of programs that LabView provides.

I still am not at all comfortable with it, and I still cannot "read" a LabView program written by an expert.
