Just a quick question on Matlab script in LabVIEW. Do I still need to install Matlab in using Matlab Script in LabVIEW?
If yes, can I build the LabVIEW application with a Matlab script included without getting application builder from Matlab?

Hello simply_ynan,
there are two ways, to run MATLAB-like code in LabVIEW: the MathWorks, Inc. MATLAB® script node and NI MathScript.
The MATLAB® script node uses the MATLAB script engine and needs MATLAB 6.5 or later to be installed. The MATLAB® script node is available in LabVIEW Full and Professional packages.
NI MathScript on the other hand does not require the installation of any third party software, only the LabVIEW MathScript RT Module is needed.
Regarding your second question, you will be able to build applications with MATLAB® script included without getting application builder for MATLAB.

Just for reference, there is a third option to run text based programs with a matlab like syntax in LabVIEW:

Thanks everyone. It really helps me clarifying this thing out.
