The main problem I have with PBASIC is that it doesn't
support simple trig functions like inverse cos and
inverse sin. If we had those functions we could change
the joysticks into a polar coordinate system instead of
the same old rectangular coordinate system. This would
be optimal for swerve drive systems. By the way does
anyone know of a joystick that outputs polar
coordinates, preferably serial?
