Programming Team Information
Programming Certification Pre-Test for 2013 Season
Programming Language
FRC LabVIEW software has been used for the past three seasons (2010 - 2012).
Code Repository
For the past two seasons (2011 and 2012), the programming team has used Mercurial source control management and Bitbucket for the code repository. Having code in a repository allows the team to share their code even when they do not see each other in person. It also allows the student lead to manage and incorporate code from the rest of the team into the main robot code project.
GitHub is under consideration for the code repository for the 2013 season.
Programmer Training Resources
- Introduction to Programming FRC Robots
- Fall 2012 State Machine Exercise
- National Instruments' LabVIEW Tutorials
