Does anyone know any free websites, books or other resources to learn labview?

[Doc Wu]

I highly recommend Ben Zimmers sites, FRCmastery.com and LVMastery.com. They helped our team out immensely last year and we reviewed them this year along with the new material as a refresher.

I'm now using a book, Labview For Everyone, by Jeffery Travis. It seems to be a good all-purpose text on LabView. If you've gone through Ben's videos, you'll be quite comfortable jumping into this book and could even skip the first few chapters. I've been going through it a chapter at a time and it fills in the gaps that I missed before. It's written assuming you are using a trial version of LabView, but 95% of the examples work with the FRC version. Of course, it doesn't cover any of the robotics-specific parts.

You can find that book on amazon.com. I think there is a newer version than the one I got. It wasn't cheap (I bought a used copy) but not out of line for a computer textbook.
