Due to having a small team in the past, and nearly a rookie team last year, we used LabView to make programming simple. My father who is the programming mentor does coding for Apps and such, and strongly disliked LabView (along with our programmers), so we went to Java over the summer. A couple months back, we attended a conference hosted by Stryke Force (2767) and they talked about how Java made it more difficult for some things due to the garbage collector. Although there was other reasons, the team decided to switch to C++ since some of the members were familiar with the C language. That is as far as I know, I am not on that sub-team so I am not sure the other reasons.
