    This subchapter looks at engineering.

engineering method

    There are numerous variations of the engineering method. There is no official version. Most have four steps, although five and six step versions also exist. In general, all of the versions include the same basic stuff, but divide it up differently or express it differently.

1. Define problem.
2. Brainstorm solutions.
3. Evaluate and choose one method
4. Plan implementation

    1. The first step is to identify the actual problem that is being solved. The vast majority of projects, especially those created by government or business, start instead with a statement of a particular solution.

    In engineering, it is best to start with a clear, neutral definition of the problem that must be solved.

    2. The second step is to look at all possible solutions. This includes examining the existing record to see how others have solved the same or similar problems.

    3. The third step is to evaluate the risks, benefits, costs, advantages, and disadvantages of the possible solutions and determine which solution best meets the needs and budget.

    4. The fourth and final step is to come up with a plan to implement the solution. In computer science, this centers on the software design.

free music player coding example

    Coding example: I am making heavily documented and explained open source code for a method to play music for free — almost any song, no subscription fees, no download costs, no advertisements, all completely legal. This is done by building a front-end to YouTube (which checks the copyright permissions for you).
