What is the next step after coding the program?
Test the program
What is the next step after testing the program?
Use the program
What is the next step after using the program?
Maintaining the program
What happens in the analyze step?
Understanding (defining) the problem
What happens in the specification step?
Specifying the problem that the program needs to solve.
What happens in the Development of the algorithm step?
Developing logical sequence of steps to solve the problem
What happens in the testing the algorithm step?
Following the steps as outlines to see if it solves the problem
What happens in the coding step?
Translating the algorithm into a programming language.
What happens in the testing step?
Have the computer follow the instructions and check the results and make corrections until it is correct.
What happens in the use the program step?
Well. Using the program (Duh!)
What happens in the maintenance phase?
Modify the program to meet changing requirements or to correct any errors
