Re: How Did You Learn How To Program?

The whole idea just interested me so one summer I went out and picked up a c++ book and taught myself. Easily one of the most useful things I've ever learned. As for LabVIEW, it was a whole lot of trial and error. At first I would make things and plug them in but as I kept using more and more I got to actually understand the language and how things work. Probably the hardest part was getting adjusted to the way it executes, coming from a background programming that executes sequentially
