Several weeks ago, National Instruments hosted an online coding challenge called: Code Madness 2011. In this episode of the VI Shots LabVIEW Podcast, my guests are Grant Heimbach who organized the challenge and Peter Kovacs who was the winner.


Peter wrote some awesome code that scans through the NI Community site and returns all the documents available from various categories and groups. Take a listen to see how the code he wrote led to an opportunity for a spin-off product which Peter is working on releasing to the LabVIEW Tools Network.
