Easy huh? I don't know about that. You will pick it up too. You learn from trying things, making mistakes, and asking questions. LV has a simple syntax so that you can quickly get started, but as with any good language, there are many different ways to do things. This means that you can suite the solution to the problem. Discovering when to apply which solution to what problem is quicker if you are an experienced programmer in any other language. If not, make lots of small controlled experiments and ask questions.
