Briefly describe why systems development is more difficult now than it was in the past
What will be an ideal response?
There was a time, not too long ago, when no systems analysts and no symbolic computer programming languages existed. Yet people still wrote and programmed applications for computers. Even though today's systems analyst has dozens of programming languages and development tools to work with, systems development is even more difficult now than it was 60 years ago. Then, as well as even more recently, certain issues were decided for you: If you wanted to write application software, you did it in-house and wrote the software from scratch. Today there are many different sources of software and the focus is no longer exclusively on in-house development. Instead, the focus will be on where to obtain the many pieces and components that will be combined into the application system. Code will be written to mainly make all the different pieces work together.
