Information Technology - Programming Languages: Prepared by Dr. Dian Rahmani Putri, S.S., M.Hum

The computer programming department head wants to update their resources as most programmers are comfortable with C, C++, and Java but they don't have anyone proficient in Assembler. They have two programmers specializing in the declining BASIC language and some older machines need their compilers and linkers updated to efficiently convert to machine code. The letter requests help from Mr. Daniels to keep the programming department, which is important to the company's future, updated.

Information Technology – Programming Languages

Prepared by Dr. Dian Rahmani Putri, S.S., M.Hum


 How does computer programming
affect business?
 With the evolution of the internet,
computer programming has affected
business in a big way. Programmers
can develop and adapt programs to
perform a broad range of functions
and tasks. This has resulted in
business owners benefiting from all
sorts of information exchanged around
the globe.
 Why is computer programming becoming more
important?
 Computer programming is becoming more and
more important as humans interact with
machines. In the future, people of all ages will
use programming as a tool to help them
communicate, as reading and writing become a
thing of the past. Nowadays, users are already
creating active and interactive web content and
learning how to improve software that
supports them in their tasks. It is also possible
that computer programming will be taught
more widely in schools so that students will be
prepared for the new world of technology.
 Mr. Daniels,

 As the head of the computer programming departement, I feel


that we need to update the department’s resources. This
includes our programmers. Most of our programmers are
comfortable with the C, C++, and Java computer languages. We
even have one programmer who can use C#. But we don’t have
anyone provicient in Assembler. I think we need some
programmers who are familiar with it. That way, we can translate
between programs more easily.
 In addition, we have two programmers who specialize in BASIC.
This language is in decline and will probably be phased out soon.
 Some of our machines are getting older, too. A few computers
need their compilers and linkers updated. Otherwise, they’ll
never be able to convert to machine code efficiently. One of our
older CPU’s cannot multi-thread very well. As you know, the
programming department is very important to this company’s
future. Please help us stay updated.

 Thanks,
 Sarah Jennings
