building array with a case

[BenL]

Hello,
I'm new to Labview and would really like to know how labview implements something like this:
x(1)=10
x(2)=11
x(3)=12
j=1
for i=1 to 3
if x(i)<>11 % if x(i) does not equal 11
y(j)=x(i)
j=j+1
end if
end for

to get an array y(1)=10 y(2)=12

thanks in advance,
Ben

FOR loop with Shift Register (SR)
CASE structure inside loop
BUILD ARRAY function inside TRUE case

SR initialized with empty array of I32 (or doubles, if you prefer)

X[ ] array comes thru the left wall of the FOR loop, automatically indexing it.

Compare X to 11 with a NOT EQUAL function.

In the TRUE case, use BUILD ARRAY to append X to the array in the shift register(Y[ ]). Pass the appended array out to the SR right terminal.

In the FALSE case, pass the SR thru unchanged.

Use the array out of the right SR terminal to display or whatever.

It took me longer to write these words, than it would have to do it.

Hi,
As CoastalMaineBird indicated this is done way easier than explained so I decided to build a simple one for you.
Please look into the example programs that ship with LabVIEW (Help >> Find Examples)

Thanks CoastalMaineBird and Feroz for your time. I understand now. It was difficult for me to find an example with the shift registers.

PS Feroz, my version 6.1 doesn't seem to open your version 7 program.
