QUOTE (LV_FPGA_SE @ Aug 12 2008, 12:15 PM) I have similar thoughts. I did not do as well as expected on the CLAD, although I passed. I perhaps overthought some of the questions. I have spent most of the last 6 months re-doing stacked-nested-and-stacked sequence code, and it has been very rewarding. And educational. And painful :ninja: I hope that the CLD will actually be easier in some ways than the CLAD because it is all about coding and coding well, not about interpreting the question.

QUOTE (Eugen Graf @ Jul 24 2008, 06:48 PM) Preved Eugen! Thanks for the link. Is this site actually done by someone who is Russian? I love the wry, self-depricating humor. If this represents how a significant percentage of the Russian people think about their country it is a useful insight. They are a lot like me! I would love to go there some day.

Speaking of commerical announcements, why isn't your corporate logo a link? It was paid for right? :thumbup:

QUOTE (kbersch @ Oct 30 2007, 06:19 PM) Kelly, I'd be interested in checking out your VIs, but I only go up to LV8.0. Any chance that you could save to 8 and post them? Thanks.

You are a better man than I :worship: I also work with a lot of people from Asia, but I absolutely refused to let that stuff any closer to me than barely within whiffing distance!

QUOTE (Phillip Brooks @ Jul 11 2008, 11:37 AM) How could anyone possibly voluntarily eat something with an odor that one might consider comparing to pig excrement OR turpentine?!?! I am in the process of rebuilding an application that was developed using NONE of the considerations of the style guidelines. It had a stacked sequence with 173 frames, many of which had similar disasters inside of them, For Loops with hidden conditional terminals, etc . Yesterday I finished turning one of the frames into a sequenceless sub-vi. when I finished, I felt like I had just taken a shower. It just made me feel clean! :thumbup: Next will be correcting the architecture, which also stinks.

Sorry to go off topic (didn't feel that this deserved a seperate thread), but last week I realized that there is something missing from the basic I/O primatives. Why is there no GPIB query? It seems that this function should be available in a primative rather than having to be built up from a seperate read and write. I only have 6.0, 7.1, and 8.0 so maybe it has been added in a later version.

Well I suck at it, but my kids love it! Kind of like Asteroids on acid.

Interesting thread guys. I am trying to aim myself towards a future move into contract systems engineering, and it is very interesting to read about the process that this involves. It is very much different from an internal developement process. Mistakes in calculating the developement time and cost are not nearly as costly (personally) on an internal developement process (especially in a large corporation).

That's the first VI that I have seen people praise someone for their use of a stacked sequence structure :thumbup: Nicely done.
