1.19 (Term Project) Suppose that the product for Chocoholics Anonymous of Appendix A has been implemented exactly as described. Now the product has to be modified to include endocrinologists as providers. In what ways will the existing product have to be changed? Would it be better to discard everything and start again from scratch?
If the product for Chocoholics Anonymous of Appendix A has been implemented exactly as described, and the only modification required is to include endocrinologists as providers, then the changes required may not be significant enough to warrant discarding everything and starting from scratch. However, some changes will need to be made to the existing product to accommodate the new requirement.
One of the possible changes is the modification of the user interface. The existing product’s user interface may have to be updated to include the new provider type of endocrinologists. This may include changes to the registration and login pages, as well as any pages that display the list of available providers. Another probable change in the product is updating the database. The existing product’s database may have to be updated to include a new table or column to store information related to endocrinologists. This may also require changes to the existing data model.
The existing product’s business logic may also have to be updated to accommodate the new provider type. This may include changes to the appointment scheduling process, as well as any billing or payment processing logic. Lastly, the documentation of the existing product may need to be updated to include instructions for endocrinologists on how to use the system.

First, Agile development is an iterative and incremental process that emphasizes frequent releases and continuous feedback. This is well-suited for the Chocoholics Anonymous project, which involves multiple stakeholders with different requirements and priorities. An Agile approach allows the team to build and test the product in small increments, ensuring that each release meets the customer's needs.
Second, the Agile Model is highly adaptable to changing requirements, which is a common occurrence in software development. As the Chocoholics Anonymous product evolves, new features and functionality may be required, and the Agile Model allows the team to incorporate these changes quickly and efficiently.
Agile development also stresses customer involvement and feedback. For the Chocoholics Anonymous product, customer satisfaction is critical, and the Agile Model allows the team to get regular feedback from stakeholders and make adjustments accordingl...
