25
is the most important and fundamental stage in SDLC. It is performed by the senior members of the team with inputs from the customer, the sales department, market surveys and domain experts in the industry. This information is then used to plan the basic project approach and to conduct product feasibility study in the economical, operational and technical areas.
planning and requirement analysis
26
to clearly define and document the product requirements and get them approved from the customer or the market analysts. This is done through an SRS (Software Requirement Specification) document which consists of all the product requirements to be designed and developed during project life cycle
defining requirements
27
Based on the requirements specified in SRS, usually more than one design approach for the product architecture is proposed and documented in a DDS - Design Document Specification.
designing the product architecture
28
In this stage of SDLC the actual development starts and the product is built. The programming code is generated as per DDS during this stage. If the design is performed in a detailed and organized manner, code generation can be accomplished without much hassle.
Building or Developing the Product
29
this stage refers to the testing only stage of the product where product defects are reported, tracked, fixed and retested, until the product reaches the quality standards defined in the SRS.
testing the product

42
while (condition) DO ... ... enddo DO ... ... until (condition)
loop control statement
43
called unconditional transfer of control statement is used to transfer control of execution to another step/statement.
GO TO statement
44
Once the product is tested and ready to be deployed it is released formally in the appropriate market. Sometimes product deployment happens in stages as per the business strategy of that organization. The product may first be released in a limited segment and tested in the real business environment (UAT- User acceptance testing).
Deployment in the Market and Maintenance

is the product of two sets; the product of set X and set Y is the set that contains all ordered pairs ( x,y ) for which x belongs to X and y belongs to Y.
