Re: Team with beginner programmers?

Welcome to FIRST!

Like before, unless you have a good C++ Mentor on the team, I don't recommend it.

Our team uses Java (although our mentor actually knows C++ instead) due to the simplicity and forgiving nature of the language.

I am currently teaching other students on my Team Java (many of which have never used any Programming Language) and they are picking it up rather well.

I attached a PDF that is from my Java Course. Its all links and Resources for learning Java.

Good Luck to you.
