    Default Programming?

    Hello all. Ok, so I'm in Engineering at school. Eventually, Ill have to learn to program for the robots and other things, does anyone know any good books I should look for or websites I could try?
    It looks like the ground had a sex change.

    Sounds like a Study Hall topic.

    What sort of robots will you be using? You'll probably want to design your own high-level language for more complex robots, but for simple ones you should learn something already relatively high-level like Python or Ruby (Ruby is about 10000000 times better than other high-level languages).

    For something more rigorous, I would choose C++ or Java, or another similar object oriented language. Of the two, C++ is harder to learn, but faster and more efficient. It'll allow you to include assembly language in your code for extra efficiency. Java is a good entry level language for this generation.
