I am new to LabWindows/CVI. Can anyone please explain, what is the major difference between LabWindows/CVI and C#.

Answer 1

As far as I can tell, they're completely different.

C# is a language, developed primarily by Microsoft, usually targeting the .NET framework.

LabWindows/CVI is (according to the documentation):

LabWindows/CVI is a proven ANSI C development environment for test and measurement that increases the productivity of engineers and scientists.

In other words, it's an IDE for a different language (C), along with tools and libraries particularly suitable for engineers and scientists.

Answer 2

LabWindows/CVI is a proven ANSI C development environment for test and measurement that increases the productivity of engineers and scientists. It has a powerful tool for writing data acquisition programs.

C# (C Sharp) on the other hand, is an object-oriented programming (.NET) language from Microsoft. It is intended to be a simple, modern, general-purpose, object-oriented programming language.
