Re: Java VS C++ || The Final Decision
If I had to choose between C++ and Java, I would choose C++ for robot programming:
1. The gigantic advantage Java has over C++ is that it can make pretty GUI's. However, that is completely useless in cRio programming as there is no GUI interface.
2. This year, Java was on its first year and C++ was on its second, however the old control system has been using C since 2004. C/C++ is much more proven and tested in FRC robotics as of now then Java.
3. I already know C++. I don't already know Java. I also know and like LabVIEW.
