National Instruments’ (NI) LabVIEW 2018 (Fig. 1) was just one of many new product announcements at this year’s NI Week. LabVIEW 2018 adds a number of new features including support for Python.

It’s supported by a range of third-party vendors, including Digilent, Emona, Quanser, and Texas Instruments. With LabVIEW 2018, the suite is able to teach LabVIEW and Python.
