Is there a way to use C or C++ and labview togther. It would help out a lot
Yes, you can use them together, but it is far more complex than using either one independently. If you are a really good C programmer and pretty good in LV, then look at the help for Call Library Function node.

depending on what you want, a formula node inside labview might work. Look in mathematics->scripts&formulas. this allows to you embed a C-like program directly inside labview.
