Re: Switching from LabVIEW to Python

In addition, if you are going to Kettering Week 1 (possibly), Midland, Traverse City, or Troy, I will be in attendance as a CSA and I should be able to resolve any issues you may have.

On top of that, I will be attending Kettering Week 2, Lansing, possibly States and Worlds with my team so if you need any emergency help there I may be able to help.

The best thing I'd recommend doing in your current position is to ask locally if there are any programmers who know Python and are willing to help mentor your team for a bit while you learn the basics, how to deploy, etc. I've found that the best way for students to learn is to get help one on one from others who know how to use it, not necessarily wasting weeks staring at screenstep documents when you don't know what is going on.
