Male, 37
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.
You can't sell the idea to Google.
To implement it takes just one programmer--if they're the right one.
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 don't know exactly how Visual Basic encourages you to organize projects, but if everything is under one directory, there are programs built specifically to take a directory tree and pack it neatly into one file so that you can easily send around that one file. I hear that 7Zip (http://www.7-zip.org/) is pretty good.
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.

Well, you have to have SOMETHING besides an idea to bring to the table: ideas are cheap. I used to set myself an "idea quota" each day, where I'd require myself to think up and write down ten ideas for a project every day. That's a lot of work at first but after a week or two they come very easily.
If you know, for example, how to run a small business, or how to sell things to people, or even how to MANAGE a technical project (which is a very different skill than working on one as a developer), that would be good.
