Just a quick question: What is the difference between high-level and low-level languages? Thanks!
In general, a high-level language abstracts you from the hardware and how it actually works. LabVIEW is a big one, Java too, C++ is somewhat up to this level. low-level languages are ones that expose all of the power of the machine to you, but a side effect of that is making the programming much, much harder (assembly for example)
