Alternative solutions to a problem

We know that we can use different ways of software development to solve the problem. 

For example, for simple calculations, we can use a calculator, a spreadsheet, and even write a program to get the result.

To complete the coursework, we should also consider various options for developing an application and choose the most optimal one.
