Coasting vs. Power Braking

Coasting Code:

reverse(4);
celerate(4, 0, 25, 2);
motorSpeed(4, 25);

Power Braking Code:

reverse(4);
celerate(4, 0, 25, 2);
motorSpeed(4, 25);
goToAbsolutePosition(-100);
reverse(4);
celerate(4, 25, 0, 2);

Conclusion:

Coasting uses less power, but it takes considerably longer and farther to stop compared to power braking.
