Re: Java vs Labview
The most important factor in selecting the language used by your team is the language your mentor knows.
You can build an effective, winning robot program in any of the three supported languages. If you have great mentor support, you can even use Python.
I personally would find Labview skill a plus when interviewing CSci grads. It provides a different experience than the curly brace languages that everyone learns.
