• Memory is volatile, because information is lost

when the power is off.
• Programs and data are permanently stored on
storage devices and are moved to memory
when the computer actually uses them.
• There are many types of storage devices:
• Disk drives (HDD, SSD)
• CD, DVD, Blue-Ray drives
• Tape drives
• Cloud Drives

• Memory is to store data and program

instructions for CPU to execute.
• A memory unit is an ordered sequence of
bytes, each holds eight bits.
• A program and its data must be brought to
memory before they can be executed.
• A memory byte is never empty, but its initial
content may be meaningless to your program.
• The current content of a memory byte is lost
whenever new information is placed in it.
• Primary Memory: RAM, ROM
• Secondary Memory: HDD, Memory Card, USB

• Data of various kinds, such as numbers,

characters, and strings, are encoded as a
series of bits (zeros and ones).
• Computers use zeros and ones because
digital devices have two stable states,
which are referred to as zero and one by
convention.
• The programmers need not to be
concerned about the encoding and
decoding of data, which is performed
automatically by the system based on the
encoding scheme.

• The screen resolution specifies the number of pixels in

horizontal and vertical dimensions of the display
device.
• Pixels (short for “picture elements”) are tiny dots that
form an image on the screen.
• A common resolution for a 17-inch screen, for
example, is 1,024 pixels wide and 768 pixels high.
• The resolution can be set manually. The higher the
resolution, the sharper and clearer the image is.
• The dot pitch is the amount of space between pixels,
measured in millimeters. The smaller the dot pitch, the
sharper the display.
 Computer
What is a Computer: Program 33

Definition
Hardware Software

• Computer programs, known as software, are

instructions to the computer.
• You tell a computer what to do through
programs. Without programs, a computer is an
empty machine.
• Computers do not understand human languages,
so you need to use computer languages to
communicate with them.
• Programs are written using programming
languages.
What is a Computer: Programming 34

Definition

• Programming – the creation of an ordered

set of instructions to solve a problem with a
computer.
• Only about 100 instructions that the
computer understands - Different programs
will just use these instructions in different
orders and combinations.
• The most valuable part of learning to
program is learning how to think about
arranging the sequence of instructions to
solve the problem or carry out the task
What is a Computer: Programming Language 35

Definition

• A Computer language
includes various languages
that are used to
communicate with a
Computer machine.
• There are three types of
programming language:
• Machine language
• Assembly language
• High level language
Programming Language: Machine Language 36

Definition

• Machine language is a set of primitive

instructions built into every computer.
• The instructions are in the form of binary
code, so you have to enter binary codes for
various instructions.
• Program with native machine language is a
tedious process. Moreover the programs
are highly difficult to read and modify.
• For example, to add two numbers, you
might write an instruction in binary like
this: 1101101010011010
 37

COMPUTER LANGUAGE
Programming Language: Assembly Language 38

Definition

• Assembly languages were developed

to make programming easy. English-
like Abbreviations used for
operations (Load R1, R8)
• Since the computer cannot
understand assembly language,
however, a program called assembler
is used to convert assembly language
programs into machine code.
• For example, to add two numbers,
you might write an instruction in
assembly code like this: ADDF3 R1,
R2, R3
Programming Language: High-level Language 39

Definition

• The high-level languages are

English-like and easy to learn
and program.
• Such languages are considered
high-level because they are
closer to human languages.
• For example, the following is a
high-level language statement
that computes the area of a
circle with radius 5: area = 5 *
5 * 3.1415;
 40

HIGH-LEVEL LANGUAGE
 41
Language Description

Ada Named for Ada Lovelace, who worked on mechanical general-purpose computers. The Ada
language was developed for the Department of Defense and is used mainly in defense projects.
BASIC Beginner’s All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code. It was designed to be learned and used easily
by beginners.
C Developed at Bell Laboratories. C combines the power of an assembly language with the ease of
use and portability of a high-level language.
C++ C++ is an object-oriented language, based on C.
C# Pronounced “C Sharp.” It is a hybrid of Java and C++ and was developed by Microsoft.
COBOL COmmon Business Oriented Language. Used for business applications.
FORTRAN FORmula TRANslation. Popular for scientific and mathematical applications.
Java Developed by Sun Microsystems, now part of Oracle. It is widely used for developing platform-
independent Internet applications.
Pascal Named for Blaise Pascal, who pioneered calculating machines in the seventeenth century. It is a
simple, structured, general-purpose language primarily for teaching programming.
Python A simple general-purpose scripting language good for writing short programs.
Visual Visual Basic was developed by Microsoft and it enables the programmers to rapidly develop
Basic graphical user interfaces.

Interpreting/Compiling Source Code 43

Definition

• A program written in a high-level

language is called a source program or
source code.
• Because a computer cannot understand
a source program, a source program
must be translated into machine code for
execution.
• The translation can be done using
another programming tool called an
interpreter or a compiler.

Source File Compiler Object File Linker Excutable File

Interpreting Source Code 44

Definition

• An interpreter reads one

statement from the source code,
translates it to the machine code
or virtual machine code, and
then executes it right away, as
shown in the following figure.
• Note that a statement from the
source code may be translated
into several machine
instructions.
Compiling Source Code 45

Definition

• A compiler translates the entire

source code into a machine-
code file, and the machine-code
file is then executed, as shown
in the following figure.

Operating System 48

Definition

• The operating system (OS) is a program

that manages and controls a computer’s
activities.
• The popular operating systems for
general-purpose computers are Microsoft
Windows, Mac OS, and Linux.
• Application programs, such as a Web
browser or a word processor, cannot run
unless an operating system is installed
and running on the computer.

problem, and of discovering, designing, and
evaluating the solutions for further opportunities.
Includes:
• Finding an answer to a question
• Figuring out how to perform a task
• Figure out how to make things work
• Not enough to know a particular programming
language… Must be able to problem solve…

Programming: Polya’s 4 Steps of Problem Solving 53

Definition

1. U – Understand the Problem. Read the

Problem Statement: Identify the inputs,
outputs, and processes
2. D – Devise a Good Plan to Solve. Create
an Algorithm / Flowchart / Pseudocode
3. I – Implement the Plan. Program the
Code
4. E – Evaluate the Solution. Run the Code
using numerous, varied test cases
Polya’s 4 Steps of Problem Solving: Example Math Problem 54

Definition

• Read the Problem: Understand the

description of problem or scenario,
identifying the knowns and unknowns
• Decide how to go about solving the
problem: Determine what steps need to
be taken to reach the solution
• Solve the Problem: Write the solution
• Test the Answer: Make sure the answer
is correct
Polya’s 4 Steps of Problem Solving: Example Computer Problem 55

Definition

• In general, when we solve a computing

problem we are taking some inputs,
processing (performing some actions on)
the inputs, and then outputting the
solution or results.
• This is the classic view of computer
programming-computation as calculation
• Polya’s steps (UDIE) can be very
effective when applied to solving
computing problems
Applying Polya’s Problem Solving to Programming 56

Step 1 - Understand the Problem

1. What is the Problem to be solved? What

is the unknown? What is the condition?
What is the data? What is needed to
solve the problem? What actions need to
take place?
2. Identify the inputs and outputs
3. Identify the processes needed to produce
the outputs from the given inputs
4. Draw a figure. Introduce suitable
notation.
5. Isolate Principle parts of the problem.
Applying Polya’s Problem Solving to Programming 57

Step 2 – Devise a Plan

1. Find connections between the knowns and unknowns.

2. Simplify: Break the problem into smaller sub-problems
3. Design a solution
4. Make a plan or list of actions to implement the solution
5. Algorithm / Flowchart / Pseudocode
Applying Polya’s Problem Solving to Programming 58

Step 3 – Implement a plan

1. Implement in a Programming
Language
2. Carry out the plan checking the
preliminary results at each step.
3. Code A Little - Test A lot
Applying Polya’s Problem Solving to Programming 59

Step 4 – Evaluate the solution

1. Run the Code

2. Check results repeatedly and thoroughly
3. Use numerous test cases or data sets
4. Use highly varied test case, including
expected as well as and unexpected cases
5. Look for new solutions
6. Is there a better, easier, or more efficient
solution
7. Can other problems be solved using these
techniques?

• C, C++, Java, and C# are very similar.

• C++ evolved from C.
• Java was modeled after C++.
• C# is a subset of C++ with some features
similar to Java.
• C evolved from the B language and the B
language evolved from the BCPL
language.
• BCPL was developed by Martin Richards
in the mid-1960s for writing operating
systems and compilers.
History of High-level Programming Language: C++ 69

Definition

• C++ is an extension of C, developed by

Bjarne Stroustrup at Bell Labs during
1983-1985.
• C++ added a number of features that
improved the C language.
• Most importantly, it added the object-
oriented programming.
• An international standard for C++ was
created by American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) in 1998
(C++98). C++11 was adopted just
recently.
C++: a Simple Program 70

Definition
• Let us begin with a simple C++ program that
displays the message “Welcome to C++!” on the
console.
#include <iostream>
Welcome using namespace std;
int main()
{
// Display Welcome to C++ to the console
cout << "Welcome to C++!" << endl;
return 0;
}

Note: Clicking the green button displays the source code with interactiveanimation and live run. Internet
connection is needed for this button.
C++ IDE Tutorial 71

Definition

• You can develop a C++ program from a command

window or from an IDE. An IDE is software that provides
an integrated development environment (IDE) for rapidly
developing C++ programs.
• Editing, compiling, building, debugging, and online help
are integrated in one graphical user interface.
• Just enter source code or open an existing file in a
window, then click a button, menu item, or function key
to compile and run the program.
• Examples of popular IDEs are Microsoft Visual C++,
Dev-C++, Eclipse, and NetBeans. All these IDEs can be
downloaded free. IDE Supplements on Companion Website
Extending the Simple C++ Program 72

Definition

• Once you understand the program, it is

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
easy to extend it to display more
int main() messages. For example, you can rewrite
{
the program to display “three messages”.
cout << "Programming is fun!" << endl;
cout << "Fundamentals First" << endl;
cout << "Problem Driven" << endl;
return 0; • Further, you can perform mathematical
} computations and displays the result to
the console.
