Re: What do you use to program your robot?

We use C++, primarily because both of us are already good in C.

I'd give the language a 9/10, mainly because we didn't run into any language-related issues this year. I dropped a point because of the 4.1 and 4.2 issues in the WPI Libraries (for those of you who don't know, the midseason update to WPILib for C had a few compiler issues). Our other problems weren't really language-specific (bad interactions between the camera and CAN code, OS level I think)
