What is programming: programming involves creation of a series of instruction aimed in directing


a computer to perform tasks far more efficiently than human

Benefit of programming
Computer programming is used to create innovative and functional software
Computer programming is used to perform specific task using mathematical algorithm and logic
It is also used to create website games and other digital contents
Features of a good program
Computer program is a set of sequence a set of instruction in programming language for
computer to execute

Features of a good program

Steps in solving problem in programming


Step one analyze the problem and develop the specification
Step two design a solution
Step three code the program in a programming language with documentation
Step four test the program
Step five validate the program

Program is a set of instruction given to a computer to perform specific task

Programmer is individual or group of people that write a series to a computer

Algorithm is a step-by-step procedure taking in solving particular programming problem


Characteristics of a good algorithm
Input
Output
Definiteness
Finiteness
Procedure to write good algorithm
Define the input
Define the variables
Outline the operations
Output your results

Types of algorithm
Loop
Sequence
Branching

Properties of algorithm is the same as characteristics of algorithm

Flowchart is a pictorial representation or diagrammatical of a step-by-step procedure taken in


solving particular programming problem

Pseudo code is a method of describing computer algorithms using a combination of natural


language and programming language.

What is programming language


Programming language is a set of rule that provide a way of telling the computer what operation
to perform

Differences between natural language and programming language


Natural language are spoken by human why programming language is intended for machine or a
language that the computer understand

Types of programming language


High level language
Low level language
Assembly language
Machine language

What is translator
Translator is computer program or computer software used to translate or convert program
written in high level language to machine language

Types of translator
Interpreter
Compiler
Assemble

advantages of using assembler


Very fast in translating
Is fairly easy to understand

Advantage of Using a compiler


Is more secure
Produce faster code that interpreting source code
It is produce executable file

Advantages of using an interpreter


Easy to check errors
Useful for prototyping software and testing basic program
Easy to create multiplatform code

Guys don't forget to read


Types of errors in programming it might comes out of our test let just prepare

Types of errors
Syntax
Semantic
Runtime

1. *Syntax*: The set of rules that defines the structure or order of words and symbols in a
programming language or sentence.

2. *Semantics*: The meaning or interpretation of words, symbols, or expressions in programming


or language.

3. *Runtime*: The period when a program is actually running, from the start to the end of its
execution. It also refers to errors that occur while the program is running.

Q - Quick
B - Beginner’s
A - All - purpose
S - Symbolic
I - Instruction
C _ Code
