Interrupts vs. Polling
Hey just asking for some opinions on the benefits of interrupts, or the benefits of polling. What are some specific advantages and disadvantages of each in FIRST Robotics, especially from a programming standpoint? Is there an advantage using one over the other when using timed code or limit switches?
