Re: Printing Float to Dashboard

I wonder why they decided to use printf instead of the C++ streams. this would be much easier, and more modular, you don't need to know what you are putting in, and you could even (if it implements it) output a whole joystick
dsLCD.Printf(line,collum, "JoyY: %f",stick.GetY);
vs
dsLCD(line,collum)<<"JoyY:"<<stick.GetY();
