Are you a visual thinker?

Well, most here are LabVIEW users so this question is quite rethorical. We are the prototypical visual thinkers! 🙂

 

Anyway, these are exciting times to be a visual thinker and LabVIEW programmer. 😄

I've always thought of myself as a visual thinker. That's how I ended up studying Mechanical Engineering, and finding LabVIEW so amazingly instinctive. I can think my code into existence, then spend time actually creating it in reality (if only there was a way for the LabVIEW IDE to pluck the LabVIEW out of my brain directly!). I like to believe all the world's greatest scientific minds are, or have been, master visual thinkers Smiley Very Happy

Sure, we are visual thinkers.

 

The experienced LabVIEW users can also turn on Highlight Execution in their brain to visualize, debug and improve visual thinking process:
