Of course, RealFlow's “Batch Graph” programs have to follow a syntax as well, but on much lower level. The fact that everything is clearly arranged with coloured icons will make it much easier for you to follow your “code”. Instead of tracing variables and values throughout dozens or even hundreds of lines of code, this information can be displayed with a single click on the appropriate icon. If you have some experience with scripting, it will definitely be easier for you to get started, but programming novices will also profit greatly from this visual environment.
