Re: Java vs Labview

For me it all really depends on the programming team as a whole. I am currently doing AP computer science learning java, but I am using LabView to program our robot. Our mentor for electronics and programming used LabView for awhile and we continue to use it until there is a want to shift. I haven't touched the java libraries for the FRC competition, but it shouldn't be difficult to pick up after reading the documents about it. I hate the discussion of which language is superior to another, because it just pressures people to go with a language they're not comfortable with. Between java and LabView, I have no preference of one over the other. They both work well and to for me it comes down to how do you want to see your logic.
