[Year 12 SofDev] Choosing a Programming langauge for SoftDev

[Adrian Janson]

Hi Ben,

 

In short - you don't have to actually implement it on a mobile device - just
model it.

 

Cheers,

Adrian

Another query on top of that, I'm a little confused about unit 4 outcome 1,
"for use on a mobile device" - does that mean we produce a solution using
our programming language as normal on computers, with the idea that the UI
suits a mobile device.

 

Or does it actually have to be put on that mobile device in the end??

 

Thanks

Hey all,

 

Just a quick query about choosing a programming language for Software
Development:

 

I have seen the list of languages that are approved for this year, will this
change much for next year? (2011 is when we intend to start up software dev
at our school).

 

At the moment our school has Visual Studio 2005 (I think). It looks like the
only language we can use from this is Visual Basic .NET?

 

Why can't we use Visual C# - but we can use C#?????

 

Our school is looking into the cost of starting Software Development, so any
suggestions on cheaper options of languages that Schools are using this year
would be much appreciated!

 

Thanks so much for your help and time.
