Re: Who has an actual programming team ?
Team 1241 has 6 programmers this year, 3 seniors, 2 sophomores and 1 freshman... we have 1 part-time mentor.
Last season we had 2 programmers and 1 mentor... found it worked better that way, smaller team = more pressure to perform = everything got done. |

Re: Who has an actual programming team ?
We have a couple programmers, they manage to pull it off, we usually get help from some sponsors and mentors though.

Re: Who has an actual programming team ?
team 1089 has a decent sized team... we have about 10-12 people, 3-4 have prior experience, and the rest are newbies... then again, with labview, everyone is a newbie on our team (pretty much)... but we also have two really great mentors who have done loads for our team...

Re: Who has an actual programming team ?
Our team has quite the opposite problem. we have a massive programing team (10-15 students) and almost no mechanical team (only 3 students this year)

Re: Who has an actual programming team ?
We've got a pretty well-balanced breakfast.
Three non-rookies, and one in training. Plus a guy from my church has shown interest and decided to join, so now he's helping as an adult mentor. That means our total is 5, which is massive for us. The programmers, along with our decent-sized mechanical team, should make for a pretty productive season this year. We also have two or three media people, and about five support (non-building) members. Keep in mind, though, that those aren't numbers of individuals. Our team is only about 15 strong, so some people (including me) do double- or triple-duty. But it works out well, and usually without any complaints. |

Re: Who has an actual programming team ?
Our programming team consists of:
* Me (The only person who's worked with the cRIO and read the manuals, but have other obligations to the CAD team) * A Junior who's also the lead of the Assembly team * A Freshman who's constantly cracking "You're Mom!" comments and has some C experience * Another senior who took a class in C, but gets completley freaked/stressed out when things don't work * A new junior who walked in one day, saw me working on the cRIO, and decided that it looked interesting. Add in a mentor who knows the general logic flow behind some of our programming ideas this year (but has never worked in LabView), and you're got our motley crew. |

Re: Who has an actual programming team ?
Team 67's Software & Controls Group has nine students and four mentors this season. Two of our students have two years experience, four are rookies and the rest fall in between. Our mentors range from novice level of expertise to advanced.

Re: Who has an actual programming team ?
Programming team?
Hey, we actually have one of those this year! Just me and our super-awesome mentor the last two years, which worked pretty well but we never had a good chance at testing things (probably due to small size of programming team and thus smaller time allotted by other subteams for us to work on). Somehow, in my final year, we managed to pull 5 or 6 more people in, and in our second day of messing around with LabVIEW I've already managed to get them to edit and download several programs without my help! I know a lot of people like to program in solitude, but (at least to me) teaching people and watching them soak in all the hard-earned knowledge you've gained over the years is an eletrifying feeling! I can't wait to see what our team comes up with this year ![]() (Heck, we got "those darned encoders!" from two years ago working perfectly in one try in LabVIEW! This year's gonna be awesome...) |

Re: Who has an actual programming team ?
We have me(2nd year), a 4th year, a 1st year that it currently learning, another 1st year, and another 2nd year, and our mentor, so we have a team of 6. Which also happens to be 1/2 the team...

Re: Who has an actual programming team ?
is it bad that we have about 5 kids on our programming team? we have our 6 weeks planned into a schedule of about three teams per week. for the first week we have mechanical, programming/electrical, and of course the marketing group. we have found that this works really effective for our second year team.
p.s. anyone know what to do with froshs who dont listen? lol!!! |

Re: Who has an actual programming team ?
Ask them what they like to do, and place them in a position on the team that fits. If there isn't one, see if you can create one.
