You should learn some of the basics of LabVIEW.  That would save you a lot of trouble.

Orange indicates it is a floating point number.  Blue indicates it is an integer datatype (no decimal places).  You can see all the numeric datatypes here: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361J-01/lvhowto/numeric_data_types_table/

You can double-click on the numeric constant (click on the "0").  Then type the number you want.

That 1.23 is just to show that it is a double.  Go to the front panel and see the actual value when it runs.  Right click the terminal and choose to not see the icon view if it confuses you.

You did some lessons?  I'm sure the first one or two should cover what the front panel, and block diagram are and their purpose.

guys, Itesla43 is pulling our legs, and if not, he should fail. It might be the only chance for him to grow up.
