Altera newby wants to ask some Questions

Hello

I am researching for a project I have to do at school.

The Questions I have are:

1. Are there any possibilitys that I can programm an Altera board with Labview?

2. If not what kind of language is used to programm altera boards?

It would be very nice if you could answer my questions because the project is very important for my graduation.

    I suspect the OP comes from a programming background, so let me put it like this:

    if one compares Verilog to C, then SystemVerilog would be C++ and VHDL would be ADA.

    Ha ... that's what I was thinking but didn't dare say it. A fair analogy. ADA of course also being created by the government.
