A list of instructions that the computer
must follow in order to process data into
information
Program
*Determining what the computer program will be used for, and what specific needs it will fill in.
*Allows the programmer to determine certain details needed for the next steps.
Step 1: Problem definition
*Determining what the computer program will be used for, and what specific needs it will fill in.
*Allows the programmer to determine certain details needed for the next steps.
Step 1: Problem definition
•Designing the solution.
*This step helps determine the logic that the program will follow.
Afterwards, it is designed either in narrative form (pseudocode) or graphical representation (flowchart).
Step 2: Program Design
a pictorial representation of the logic.
It utilizes symbols to represent the detailed series of steps needed to solve the programming problem.
Flowchart
•This is the actual coding of the program and translating of the design into specific programming statements.
Step 3: Program coding
