i'm just saying your time would be better used during the season using the library... especially if you want students to learn to program. you'll loose all your new people pretty quickly without the use of the library. off season is fine, but if you don't make programming fun for the new people, they won't stay interested when you get to the headache moments. the best thing is to have them just program the myrobot files and look at the wpi library to try to understand how the function works, if they're interested in how the functions. but writing that stuff during the season will leave you with no time and an arm that moves inefficiently by dead reckoning. now as a mentor you can write this stuff yourself in your free time or working on another computer while they're working on the myrobot files. we created our own pid this past season but that was my mentor's doing, this was to make our pid work better for our uses. just some suggestions... this is after all a program for learning and mentoring... you might be surprised the functions some of these students come up with
