While the other engineers are busy working, the computer engineer must write a program that will control the sign. The program should cause the sign to rotate when the program is started and stop the rotation when the switch is pressed and the business is closed. Do not forget that the purpose of the sign is for people to read it. If the sign rotates too quickly, it will be difficult for potential customers to read.
