LabVIEW (Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench) is a graphical programming environment widely used in various scientific and engineering fields, including physics. It allows users to develop custom measurement and control systems using a graphical approach, making it particularly useful for physics experiments and data analysis.
