Re: What programming lauguage should we start with?
Now, I am not sure how stable the python interpreter is for the cRio, but it might be a good one to check out. It can be used as a stepping stone into Java or C++. There would be more setting up to do with Python I assume. I would personally use C++ just because it lets you fail A LOT. I mean it is like trying to ride a bike without training wheels. (Sorry, I still do not know how to ride a bike after 17 years of being on this Earth0 But learning comes from failures. It lets you dive deeper into the system, makes you think a bit more. Like why I should use a pointer and what a pointer actually is.
