I've worked at multiple Internet startups of different shapes, sizes and ambitions. Now I'm the CTO (Chief Technical Officer) of another small company with big dreams. I look nothing like the picture above.
If you copy and paste your homework question in here, I will answer with something that will, at best, get you an F on your project, and at worst, will get you kicked out of school. You have been warned.
That's nice.
You can't sell the idea to Google.
To implement it takes just one programmer--if they're the right one.
I'm not really clear on what you want, but it sounds like you may want a hash function like MD5 or SHA-1.

Go for it! You were planning to be alive and doing something in three years anyway, right?
There's a bit of an ageism problem in the industry, but I no longer think it's as bad as I used to think. The hard part is getting the first opportunity, and after you've proven yourself on a project even once, getting work will be much easier.
Certified Nurse Aide
Are there social cliques (like "cool kids") in old folks homes?
Chef
Is it true that the "specials" are usually the stuff that's been sitting around awhile?
Correctional Officer
Were there a lot of suicides in your prison, and what's the most common way prisoners do it?
It's not a matter of the language. Most programming languages are general-purpose. It's like asking "Is English or French better for writing novels?"
The answer is whichever one you know and can either find appropriate libraries for, or can write them in.
You can write a game in Delphi perfectly well. (I think. I don't actually know Delphi, but last I heard it's a general-purpose language).
Except in a few specialized applications, "What language should I use to write X?" is not the right question to be asking.
I'm assuming this is C, which is what it looks like, anyway. Try leaving out that "int" so that the line reads:
c = gah(d);
You need the type when you're declaring or defining a function, but not when you're actually using it.
