Synthesize (25 points) Respond to the questions about the scenario as if you were a computer programmer. You will focus on compilers and design approaches.
You are a computer programmer working for a large company that creates educational games and applications. The application you are currently working on aims to teach young children about colors and shapes found in nature. The company wants to just present this product as a mobile app. The deadline is just a few weeks away and you haven’t even started programming yet. This project is also particularly important because it has the potential to make your company millions of dollars if the app works well and is adopted by schools around the country.
1. What programming language will you use for this app? Explain why. (3 points)

2. Whatever programming language you use will ultimately need to be translated into binary in order for the computer to understand it. With the deadline for the app coming up so quickly, should you use a complier or interpreter for this step? Explain why. (4 points)

3. How will you approach the design for this program? Explain why you would use this approach. (5 points)

4. Imagine that you use character data to program the information about the colors and shapes that will appear in a nature scene of the app. Write an example of character data. (3 points)

5. Suppose you have the following numbers and need them to be written in the two other numbering systems. Before you could translate them, you would need to identify what numbering system is currently used. Which numbering systems do the following numbers represent? (4 points)
a) 2C

b) 109

6. You've finished programming the app! Now your company has to decide whether to use an open source license or proprietary license. Explain which one you would choose and why. (6 points)
