pic: Programming is as easy as you make it.

[Conor Ryan]

I have found that when using Labview, Stacked Sequences are insanely helpful for programming autonomous. I haven't seen too many people use them.

Without the sequence structures, my autonomous would make my robot die in agony.

But you can still manipulate the variables in auto mode..

I must be missing something

Stack sequences are definitely easy, but ideally your gonna want to use a state machine. Even if at first it seems as though using a stacked sequence would have been the better way, you will come to appreciate the ability to control what state comes next as you start to modify your auton and make it more complex.

What is a state machine?

Oooooh. Now I understand! Thanks!
