writing a step-by-step instructions for the computer to follow, it needs to be executed |
|
|
Flowcharts |
graphical diagrams that are used to show the step ,or flow of the program ( they also include symbols to represent) |
|
|
Pseudocode |
away of writing the details of algorithm steps in English using short phrases todescribe the project outline |
|
|
Flowcharts& Pseudocode |
provide the programmer with a way of outlining aprogram algorithm-allow the programmer to focus on the logic ofthe algorithm and make refinements before translating it into statementsin a particular programming language
|
|
|
Deskchecking
|
common method usedby programmers to test their programs; it is the process of using a pencil& paper to work through the program by hand.
|
|
|
Purposeof Testing
|
-does the program perform the specific task (does it dowhat you want it to do)-does it contain any errors-does it work efficiently (the fewersteps, the faster the program)-If the programdoes not meet the testing criteria, the programmer begins the debuggingprocess.
|
|
|
Debugging
|
identify errors and make necessary corrections to meetthe program’s intended outcome
|
|
|
What do all of these things have in common? |
They all deal with solving problems of a program |
