Software engineering is the application of a systematic, disciplined and quantifiable to the development, operation and maintenance of software, and the study of these approaches, namely the application of en-gineering to software.1 is the application of engineering to software because it integrates mathematics,

computer science and practices whose origins are in the ingeniería.2

Software engineering is the study of the principles and methodologies for the development and maintenance of software (Zelkovitz, 1978)

Software engineering is the practical application of scientific knowledge to the design and construc-tion of computer programs and associated documentation required to develop, operate and maintain. Also

known as software development or production of software (Boehm, 1976). Software engineering is the establishment of the principles and methods of engineering to obtain

software cost effective manner that is reliable and works on real machines (Bauer, 1972).

In the United States, the software contributed to one-eighth of all the increase of GDP during the 1990s (about 90,000 million dollars per year), and one ninth of all productivity growth during the last years of the decade (about U.S. $ 33,000 million per year). Software engineering contributed to U.S. $ 1 trillion of economic growth and productivity in the decade. Around the globe, the software contributes to eco-

nomic growth in similar ways, although it is difficult to find reliable statistics.

Developing a program consists of a series of steps. The programmer defines a problem, plan a solution, coding the program, check the program and finally documented. Typically, the programmer defines what is known and the goal, select a program to use, debug the program in subsequent phases to completion - to ensure that errors are not introduced - and then documents the design, development and testing of the program . With the ever changing face of computer technology, programming is an exciting and challenging environment that few programmers dream of leaving. Knowledge of the systems Computer programmers have a full understanding of how and why computer systems, including the limitati-ons of the system, and can set realistic expectations and avoid limitations to maximize the use of equip-ment and accessories. Creativity Platform Programming is a platform to showcase creativity, especially in troubleshooting and entertainment. The programming develops new video games, graphics and animations to show new business ideas or solve a par-ticular problem. Interactive Education Programming, especially in web development, has enabled new interactive web applications that have ac-cess to system resources and provide the same level of control as desktop applications. Used in online learning platforms, these applications have enabled distance learning programs take off. Today, almost all major learning institutions have some form of online learning application, thanks to computer programming. Shaping the future It is likely that the principles of computer programming used today influence how technologies - such as speech recognition, artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies - will change in the future and how they will be applied to our daily life. For example, there is an ongoing trend towards automation of Internet searches and purchases to be more localized. While developed hardware platforms play an im-portant role, computer technology will probably be in the center of everything and the programming of future systems will be an important aspect. Machine Language Since computers work with numbers, the program allows a person to represent the machine language into a human readable format. This reduces the chances of introducing errors and loss of time in debugging and troubleshooting.
