Computational thinking Flashcards
1
Q
What is decomposition?
A
Breaking a complex problem down into smaller problems and solving each one individually.
2
Q
What is abstraction?
A
Picking out the important bits of information from the problem, ignoring the specific details that don’t matter.
3
Q
What is algorithmic thinking?
A
A logical way of getting from the problem to the solution. If the steps you take to solve a problem follow an algorithm then they can be reused and adapted to solve similar problems in the future.
