Analysis of the drive() method

During the build season, our programming team wanted to use the drive() method with predictable results on the field. We tried adjusting parameters but never got the result we wanted, even when we dove into the source code of the RobotDrive class's drive() method we didn't, at first, understand what inputs would give us specific results. So naturally, we broke it down and analyzed it. These are our findings (attached).

Our team was using Java; we assume the method uses the same or relatively the same calculation for other programming languages.


Thanks!
