Re: What programming lauguage should we start with?
I would suggest LabVIEW. Since NI also makes the hardware, it makes it a tad bit easier. Plus they are much more willing to give help if its their hardware working with their software. The saying we normally use is that LabVIEW is easy to learn but hard to master. So a basic understand will function well within FIRST. And some major groups, like government and industrial plants, are using more of graphical languages, which means using it would help your students.
