The comparison mode is set to compare aggregates in this situation. Which would give a scalar out

Of course. Doh! My bad.

Apparently, casting a U8 array to a string requires a FOR loop, shift register, typecast and concatenate operation and at least 9 wire bends. Why??

I am teaching a few friends some basic programming in LabVIEW. Before starting a discussion on standard LabVIEW design patterns, I thought it would be useful for them to try a simple program without proper design. I had them build a simple calculator that would either add, subtract, multiply, or divide two numbers. Here was my favorite result:

That Can't be a Rube as a Rube is meant to at least function correctly. The behaviour of the event structure means that that will never execute as the designer hoped, although it is interesing to see how they were thinking!

It runs. And it even works. Both ES fire on value change.

For now. But having two event structures in the same loop is a disaster waiting to happen.

I didn't say it was good design practice; I said it worked.

The second event structure does almost nothing and really can be removed. the RB code is how he did the math...
