2.1 Structure Diagrams Flashcards
1
Q
What is one method of designing a solution to a problem?
A
Creating structure diagrams
2
Q
What do structure diagrams illustrate?
A
Illustrate problem decomposition
3
Q
Who and what can structure diagrams be used for?
A
- They can be used for developers to understand a problem to code and to share with users during systems analysis
4
Q
How are structure diagrams produced?
A
They are produced by using a method known as step-wise refinement
5
Q
How do we break a problem down?
A
We break a problem down into smaller and smaller components using decomposition
6
Q
What will happen with some areas of program when breaking them down?
A
Some will need more breaking down than others
7
Q
What should the lowest level nodes achieve?
A
They should achieve a single task
8
Q
How can the lowest level nodes be coded?
A
These can be coded as a single module or sub-program
