A few questions about C++

[austpet1230]

Hello everyone,

I am part of a rookie (well not anymore) team and in the 2014 FRC Competition, we plan on using C++ to program the robot.

My first question is C++ or Java better to program in?

My second question is that is this code appropriate to initialize two joysticks?

#include "WPILib.h"

class RobotDemo : public SimpleRobot
{
	RobotDrive myRobot; // robot drive system
	Joystick stick1, stick2; // only joystick

public:
	RobotDemo(void):
		myRobot(1, 2),	// these must be initialized in the same order
		stick1(1),		// as they are declared above.
		stick2(2)
	{
		myRobot.SetExpiration(0.1);
	}

Thank you to everyone and anyone who answers my question.
