Question

Answer 1

I think it depends on the organization where they are working! They may work with specific computer system such as scientific or engineering or financial according to employer's need! Programmer analysts may also prepare cost analyses to assist management in determining the financial feasibility of a system!!!

programmer analysts may design the software programs for the new system and then translate the designs into various programming languages for the computer to follow.

Programmer analysts are usually responsible for testing software to ensure there are no problems and debugging programs whenever problems arise.

They have to stay aware of new technology trends.. They can do so by reading tech news and journals, joining seminar etc.
