I am part of a high school robotics team, and there is some debate about which language to use to program our robot. We are choosing between C (or maybe C++) and LabVIEW. There are pros for each language. C(++): Widely used Good preparation for the future (most programming positions require text-based programmers.) We can expand upo...
