OH i totally forgot. What are some good resources for teaching Core Java and C++.

Not stuff for the WPILIB libraries, but for the Languages themselves.
The year our 4-yr programmer graduated and left programming to the novices, he left us a whole bunch of sample JAVA programs and information from our school's [now nonexistent] AP programming class. I haven't looked through most of the files, but someone who did (and took the AP test a year later) said that he thought he did really well. I'm sorry I can't be more exact.

Link to mentioned files: http://sdrv.ms/JFwZ1O
Right-click -> Download.

2 years later, all the programmers are self-taught. We learned how to program the robot by reading some of these examples, perusing the FIRST provided samples, and reading other teams' code (available to CD).

Good luck to your and your team!
