LabVIEW Digest Challenge 1

[CharlotteN]

Hi Everyone and welcome to the first LabVIEW Digest challenge!

We'll start with some simple addition. Email your entries to LabVIEWDigestCompetition@ni.com

The Challenge:

Return the sum of the numbers in an array.

Return 0 if the array is empty.

To make things more difficult - the number 10 is worth double. So in the example below we have 1 + 10 x 2 + 2 + 6 = 29

I've attached a starting VI for you to use (saved for LabVIEW 2010 and upwards).

Close date: Monday 10th April

Please note the competition is only open to LabVIEW users in Europe, Middle East, India and Africa.

Happy coding!

Well, let's give it a shot!

I can't claim to have much experience using LabVIEW just yet, but here's my solution.

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for all the submissions, we've had a huge range of different ways to solve this problem and I'm very happy to see the enthusiastic responses!

Can I please ask everyone that has posted on the forums to submit their answers to our email address: LabVIEWDigestCompetition@ni.com. I will be selecting the winner from that email address. 

Once the competition closes I'll post some of the different ways people solved the problem (anonymously) so people can learn from them. 

Thanks, 

Charlotte
