<p class="MsoNormal">I wonder if I can ask your opinion again.<o:p></o:p></p>

<span lang="EN-GB">Within the Software Development Programming requirements it lists a number of requirements relating to choosing the programming language. For example: design, construct and use external storage and access technologies.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It also says: “For assessment purposes, students must be familiar with all of the listed programming requirements; however, not all requirements must be addressed in each task.”<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:#F2F2F2">Obviously the students must know about the requirements laid out in that requirements document for the exam
