Re: Learn C++ or Labview in a Summer?

If you are familiar with both VB and Pascal, learning C++ should be a piece of cake, since you should already have the programming logic down, understanding of types, etc. The hardest thing will just be learning the new syntax, which will probably seem a bit odd at first, especially having to terminate a line with a semicolon (VB just uses the line break).
There aren't any specific FRC programming websites which I'm aware of, but there is LOTS of material on CD, and the default code itself gives you enough of an intro that you can learn lots from it. However, please keep in mind that next year's controller will be programmed differently, as the control system is being switched.
