  3. why is problem this important to solved ?

Software Engineers​

they design and Create computer system and application to solve real world problems

Software Engineering​

is the branch of computer science that deals with the design, developments,testing, and maintenance of software application. Software Engineers apply engineering principal and knowledge of computer programming language to build a software solution for end users

there Tasks​

  • Evaluating and testing new software programs
  • optimizing software for speed and scalability
  • writing and testing code
  • consulting with client, Engineers,Security specialist and other stakeholders
