| Sep 14, 2016 at 14:27 | comment | added | ijustlovemath | I think we can be a little more precise here. In terms of counting wires, let's define a "node" as the section of wire that gets highlighted on triple click. Then a "branch" is the number of dots on the node due to splitting the wire. Then the number of labview primitives due to wires is: total_nodes + sum_over_all_nodes(branches_per_node). In this example: i.imgur.com/MMIB89a.png there are 3 nodes; one connected to the string control, one inside the case structure, and one on the string indicator. There's only one branch, so the total wire primitives is 3 + 1 = 4. | |

| Nov 30, 2015 at 20:11 | comment | added | intrepidcoder | I think it's fine to make up an arbitrary scoring system for graphical languages as long as it's fair, but don't call it "bytes" because it isn't. Using "Bytes" means there is an actual representation of the program being stored. Could we call it "Equivalent bytes"? | |
