How can I improve or optimize this VI?

[abraham.oash]

I'm learning C++ and I did this excercise from How to program in C++ Deitel (P7-10) (Salesperson Salary Ranges) Use a one-dimensional array to solve the following problem. A company pays its salespeople on a commission basis. The salespeople each receive $200 per week plus 9 percent of their gross sales for that week. For example, a salesperson who grosses $5000 in sales in a week receives $200 plus 9 percent of $5000, or a total of $650. Write a program (using an array of counters) that determines how many of the salespeople earned salaries in each of the following ranges (assume that each salesperson’s salary is truncated to an integer amount):

a) $200–299
b) $300–399
c) $400–499
d) $500–599
e) $600–699
f) $700–799
g) $800–899
h) $900–999
i) $1000 and over

I solved the problem in C++ but I did this problem in LabVIEW and I solved it too... but i think that my code in LabVIEW could be better so could you check it please?

Sorry I can't to upload my .cpp fileD:!

Tricks

• Ranges
  An integer case structure accepts ranges to limit the number of cases. These ranges can be closed (3..10) or open (3..) where every value above 2 is executed

I dont think you need case structures.

The Threshold 1D Array also works well in this situation.

You can also use the General Histogram vi.

Hey Sandal waht is the sintax to get ranges in the structure case? Or How can I use the ranges in that structure?

it only works for integers, but you simpliy type e.g.

• "5..9" (5,6,7, 8 or 9)
• "4,7,11..13"  (4,7,11,12,13)
• "..5" (five or less)
• "8.." (8 or higher)
• "..2, 5.." (anything except 3 or 4)
• etc,
• don't forget the default case for anything else
