Potentiometer switch

Programming Support VEXcode Pro V5 Text Tech Support

I’ve been trying to program a potentiometer switch that switches the autonomous program using if statements. Any idea on how to do this in V5 Pro Text? It’d be helpful to know how to do it in PROS too if anyone could help with that.

if(potentiometer_value > number){
    //run auto 1
}
else{
    //run auto 2
}

The API has everything on potentiometers inside. If you don’t already have this link it should be the single most helpful one.

For VEXcode Pro V5, you can look at the Doxygen help:

Doing switches like that has won me multiple design awards in middle school. They were more important in the cortex days but they are still good for the V5.
