Re: Advice- Too many Programmers?
Keep in mind that not everyone on the programming team will actually be *coding*. Some will be working on logic flow and concept of operation, control documentation, configuration management, and autonomous mode planning. Others will be working advanced efforts such as custom game piece detection and interaction, robot autonomy (in both auto and teleop modes), etc.
Others will work on scouting apps and database design, website programming, etc.
We have about 30 students who want to join programming this year (surely this will weed out over time). Only a handful actually ever write actual low-level robot code.
