Lesson 7 -- Feeder & Intake Subsystems + IO

Watch on YouTube (recommended):

Or if you cannot access the YouTube video, watch on my Web site or open in VLC on mobile.

Lesson Details

Duration: 00:24:23 (24 minutes and 23 seconds)

Topics:

	Feeder Subsystem
	Feeder IO
	LoggedNetworkNumber (AdvantageScope)
	Intake Subsystem
	Intake IO

Description:

	AdvantageScope live tuning ("Tuning Mode"): https://docs.advantagescope.org/overview/live-sources/tuning-mode/
	AdvantageScope dashboard inputs (LoggedNetworkNumber is one of these): https://docs.advantagekit.org/data-flow/recording-inputs/dashboard-inputs/
	Code scope: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scope_(computer_programming)
	Gear ratios: https://scienceinsights.org/how-gear-ratios-work-speed-torque-and-math/
	Explicit type casing (select the Java tab on the examples): https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/dsa/explicit-type-casting/
	Anonymous inner class: https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/java/anonymous-inner-class-java/
	Timestamp 14:26 - The reason we have to create the var subsystem outside of the anonymous class is because once we enter the anonymous class block, the this keyword no longer refers to the IntakeSubsystem class but instead to the anonymous inner class. Of course, we could instead solve this by setting s in the anonymous class to IntakeSubsystem.getInstance().
