Re: [FTC]: Pros/ cons of programming languages

As much as I love C, we're going to use LabVIEW this year.

Why...

Because we're also using it for FRC.

And why are we using it for FRC?

Because we're also using it for FTC

Seriously, NI is destined to become a force in the robotics industry, now that they've captured FIRST's mind and soul.

I see C and C++ as the "programmer's" language, but LabVIEW as the "Scientist and Engineer's" language. Since the later is a bigger part of the the pie... I thought it best to bite the bullet and lead the charge.

If using labVIEW encourages more students to become programmers, they can learn C++ in their CS classes
