The cRIO's PowerPC/FPGA combo is obviously far more processing-capable than the old IFI setup. However, that's no reason to write sloppy and inefficient code.

With a bit of LabVIEW experience, you'll learn to appreciate the value of the enumerated type (as in C/C++). I would strongly encourage every LabVIEW programmer to use this datatype wherever possible. It's always good practice to remove "magic numbers" from your code.
