INTRODUCTION

A computer is a useful tool for solving a great variety of problems. To make

a computer do anything (i.e. solve a problem), you have to write a computer
program. In a computer program you tell a computer, step by step, exactly what
you want it to do. The computer then executes the program, following each step
mechanically, to accomplish the end goal.
This module presents the typical programming cycle of Java and the
platform-independent architecture of Java. Part of this module is the
downloading and installation of NetBeans 8.0 or 8.1.
In this module you will also learn more about Flowcharting and Algorithm.

Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, you should be able to:
1. understand the basics and usefulness of an algorithm,
2. analyzed various algorithmic solutions to the problem; and,
3. implement the algorithmic solutions to a given problem.

LET’S ENGAGE

Algorithms are judged not only by how well they solve a problem, but also
by how effectively they use resources like time and space. We will learn
techniques for analyzing time and space complexity of algorithms and will use
these to evaluate tradeoffs between different algorithms. We will also see that
problems can be organized into a hierarchy that measures their inherent
difficulty by the efficiency of the best possible algorithm for solving them.
It is possible to create algorithms for the things that we do every day such
as making breakfast, brushing teeth, taking a bath and washing your clothes.
Before we start our lesson, let’s try doing this activity. How do you cook
adobo?
Write your answers on a short bond paper. Put numbers next to your
response to indicate the order of the steps.
Recipe
2 lbs pork belly
2 tablespoons garlic minced or crushed
5 pieces dried laurel leaves
4 tablespoons vinegar
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon black pepper
2 cups water
Salt to taste

LET’S TALK ABOUT IT

Look around you. Computers and networks are everywhere, enabling an

intricate web of complex human activities: education, commerce, entertainment,
research, manufacturing, health management, communication, even war. Of the
two main technological underpinnings of this amazing proliferation, one is the
breathtaking pace with which advances in microelectronics and chip design have

4
been bringing us faster and faster hardware. The other is efficient algorithms
that are fuelling the computer revolution.
In mathematics, computer science, and related subjects, an algorithm is a
finite sequence of steps expressed for solving a problem. An algorithm can be
defined as “a process that performs some sequence of operations in order to solve
a given problem”. Algorithms are used for calculation, data processing, and many
other fields.
In computing, algorithms are essential because they serve as the
systematic procedures that computers require. A good algorithm is like using the
right tool in the workshop. It does the job with the right amount of effort. Using
the wrong algorithm or one that is not clearly defined is like trying to cut a piece
of plywood with a pair of scissors: although the job may get done, you have to
wonder how effective you were in completing it.
Let us follow an example to help us understand the concept of algorithm
in a better way. Let’s say that you have a friend arriving at the bus station from
Bontoc, Mountain Province, and your friend needs to get from the bus station to
your house. Here are two different ways (algorithms) that you might give your
friend for getting to your home.

Algorithm 1
When your bus arrives at the bus station
Wait for a taxi
Get in a taxi
Tell the driver my address

Algorithm 2
When your bus arrives at the bus station, call me
Wait for me at the bus station.

All these algorithms accomplish the same goal, but each algorithm does it
in a different way. Each algorithm also has a different cost and a different travel
time. Taking a taxi, for example, is the fastest way, but also the most expensive.
Waiting for your friend is definitely less expensive, but a whole lot slower. You
choose the algorithm based on the circumstances.
In computer programming, there are often many different algorithms to
achieve any given task. Each algorithm has advantages and disadvantages in
different circumstances. Sorting is one place where a lot of research has been
done, because computers spend a lot of time sorting lists.
Three reasons for using algorithms are efficiency, abstraction and
reusability.

5
Efficiency: Certain types of problems, like sorting, occur often in computing.
Efficient algorithms must be used to solve such problems considering the time
and cost factor involved in each algorithm.
Abstraction: Algorithms provide a level of abstraction in solving problems
because many seemingly complicated problems can be distilled into simpler ones
for which well-known algorithms exist. Once we see a more complicated problem
in a simpler light, we can think of the simpler problem as just an abstraction of
the more complicated one. For example, imagine trying to find the shortest way
to route a packet between two gateways in an internet. Once we realize that this
problem is just a variation of the more general shortest path problem, we can
solve it using the generalized approach.
Reusability: Algorithms are often reusable in many different situations. Since
many well-known algorithms are the generalizations of more complicated ones,
and since many complicated problems can be distilled into simpler ones, an
efficient means of solving certain simpler problems potentially lets us solve many
complicated problems.

Expressing Algorithms
Algorithms can be expressed in many different notations, including
natural languages, pseudocode, flowcharts and programming languages.
Natural language expressions of algorithms tend to be verbose and ambiguous,
and are rarely used for complex or technical algorithms. Pseudocode and
flowcharts are structured ways to express algorithms that avoid many
ambiguities common in natural language statements, while remaining
independent of a particular implementation language. Programming languages
are primarily intended for expressing algorithms in a form that can be executed
by a computer, but are often used to define or document algorithms.
Sometimes it is helpful in the description of an algorithm to supplement
small flowcharts with natural language and/or arithmetic expressions written
inside block diagrams to summarize what the flowcharts are accomplishing.
Algorithm using natural language statements:
Start
Assume that the first number is 10
Assume that the second number is 5
Add 10 and 5
Display the output
Stop

Start
Algorithm using pseudocode
Num1=10;
Num2=5;
Sum=Num1 + Num2;
Print Sum;
Stop

6
Benefits of Using Algorithms
The use of algorithms provides a number of benefits. One of these benefits
is in the development of the procedure itself, which involves identification of the
processes, major decision points, and variables necessary to solve the problem.
Developing an algorithm allows and even forces examination of the solution
process in a rational manner. Identification of the processes and decision points
reduces the task into a series of smaller steps of more manageable size. Problems
that would be difficult or impossible to solve in entirety can be approached as a
series of small, solvable sub-problems.
By using an algorithm, decision making becomes a more rational process.
In addition to making the process more rational, use of algorithm will make the
process more efficient and more consistent. Efficiency is an inherent result of
the analysis and specification process. Consistency comes from both the use of
the same specified process and increased skill in applying the process. An
algorithm serves as a mnemonic device and helps ensure that variables or parts
of the problem are not ignored. Presenting the solution process as an algorithm
allows more precise communication. Finally, separation of the procedure steps
facilitates division of labor and development of expertise.
A final benefit of the use of an algorithm comes from the improvement it
makes possible. If the problem solver does not know what was done, he or she
will not know what was done wrong. As time goes by and results are compared
with goals, the existence of a specified solution process allows identification of
weaknesses and errors in the process. Reduction of a task to a specified set of
steps or algorithm is an important part of analysis, control and evaluation.

Constructs for developing algorithms:

Sequence
Sequence involves simple steps to be performed successively.:
Steps are executed one at a time and not in parallel,
Each step is executed only once;
Execution order is the order in which steps are written
Execution of the last step terminates the algorithm.

Such an algorithm is not flexible as it cannot be adapted to respond to

different circumstances. For example, think about the unavoidable situation that
at some point the coffee jar is empty or the situation when the robot needs to
handle several requests for coffee or custom requests for milk or sugar. The
conclusion is that an algorithm which is merely a combination of steps in a
sequence will not get us far and more flexible structures are needed in order to
design algorithms capable of realistically depicting real life situations.

Self-Assessment

the total amount purchased in a fast food center. Assume the following unit price
of each commodity:
Spaghetti - P65.00
Cheeseburger - P45.00
Soft drinks - P20.00
Fried Chicken - P45.00

2. Create an algorithm that computes the average grade of a student, given his
grade four subjects: Filipino, Math, English and Science. Assume that all
subjects are 1 unit except for science with 2 units.
3. Create an algorithm that will compute the weekly salary of an employee. The
algorithm will ask for the number of days worked and the rate per day.

Selection
It refers to a decision based on a certain condition. If the condition is true,
one of the two branches is explored otherwise the other alternative is taken or
executed. This is usually presented in if-else construct in programming.
An algorithm that reads to values, determines the larger value and prints the
larger value.

2. Create an algorithm that will display the amount to be paid by a customer if
he/she is given 10% discount rate for buying an item that costs more than
P1000.00 otherwise only 3%.

Iteration
Iteration is the repetition of a process in a computer program. Iterations of
functions are common in computer programming, since they allow several blocks
of data to be processed in sequence. This is normally done using a looping
statement in programming. These loops will repeat a process until a certain
number, case or condition is reached.

The algorithm below will display "Hello World" 5 times.

Start
Set counter to 1
While counter is lesser than 5
Display "Hello World"
Increment counter with 1
End while
Stop

LESSON 2: Flowchart

Objectives
At the end of the lesson, you should be able to:
1. translate algorithms to flowchart; and,
2. design a solution for a certain problem using flowchart.

LET’S ENGAGE

How often have you thought about streamlining a process in your

organization but not been sure where to start? Or perhaps you having a hard
time understanding a process when it's described to you in detail.

Flow charts are a useful tool in these situations, as they make a process
easy to understand at a glance. Using just a few words and some simple
symbols, they show clearly what happens at each stage and how this affects
other decisions and actions.

We will start our lesson by going into this activity.

The blue flowchart is meant to show the steps on how to stop working
and shutting down the computer.

Place the instruction below in the flowchart. Some of the instructions are
not required, include only those are relevant to the task.

11
 LET’S TALK ABOUT IT.
Flowchart
A Flowchart is a type of diagram (graphical or symbolic) that represents an
algorithm or process. Each step in the process is represented by a different
symbol and contains a short description of the process step. The flow chart
symbols are linked together with arrows showing the process flow direction. A
flowchart typically shows the flow of data in a process, detailing the
operations/steps in a pictorial format which is easier to understand than reading
it in a textual format.
A flowchart describes what operations (and in what sequence) are required
to solve a given problem. A flowchart can be likened to the blueprint of a building.
As we know a designer draws a blueprint before starting construction on a
building. Similarly, a programmer prefers to draw a flowchart prior to writing a
computer program.
Flowcharts are a pictorial or graphical representation of a process. The
purpose of all flow charts is to communicate how a process works or should work
without any technical or group specific jargon.
Flowcharts are used in analyzing, designing, documenting or managing a
process or program in various fields.
Flowcharts are generally drawn in the early stages of formulating computer
solutions. Flowcharts often facilitate communication between programmers and
business people. These flowcharts play a vital role in the programming of a
problem and are quite helpful in understanding the logic of complicated and
lengthy problems. Once the flowchart is drawn, it becomes easy to write the
program in any high level language. Often we see how flowcharts are helpful in
explaining the program to others. Hence, it is correct to say that a flowchart is
a must for the better documentation of a complex program.
For example, consider that we need to find the sum, average and product
of 3 numbers given by the user.
Algorithm for the given problem is as follows:
Start
Read num1, num2, num3
Compute sum as num1+num2+num3
Computer average as sum/3
Compute product as num1 x num2 x num3
Write/Display the sum, average and product
Stop
Flowchart for the above problem will look like

12
 Start

Read num1,num2,num3

sum= num1+num2+num3
average = S/3
product=X * Y * A

Write
sum,average,product

Stop

Now that we have seen an example of a flowchart let us list the advantages
and limitations of using flowcharts.

Advantages of Using Flowcharts

The benefits of flowcharts are as follows:
Communication: Flowcharts are better way of communicating the logic of a
system to all concerned.
Effective analysis: With the help of flowchart, problem can be analyzed in more
effective way.
Proper documentation: Program flowcharts serve as a good program
documentation, which is needed for various purposes.
Efficient Coding: The flowcharts act as a guide or blueprint during the systems
analysis and program development phase.
Proper Debugging: The flowchart helps in debugging process.
Efficient Program Maintenance: The maintenance of operating program
becomes easy with the help of flowchart. It helps the programmer to put efforts
more efficiently on that part.
Limitations of Using Flowcharts:
Although a flowchart is a very useful tool, there are a few limitations in using
flowcharts which are listed below:

13
Complex logic: Sometimes, the program logic is quite complicated. In that case,
flowchart becomes complex and clumsy.
Alterations and Modifications: If alterations are required the flowchart may
require re-drawing completely.
Reproduction: As the flowchart symbols cannot be typed, reproduction of
flowchart becomes a problem.
The essentials of what is done can easily be lost in the technical details of how
it is done.

When to Use a Flowchart

To communicate to others how a process is done.
A flowchart is generally used when a new project begins in order to plan
for the project.
A flowchart helps to clarify how things are currently working and how they
could be improved. It also assists in finding the key elements of a process, while
drawing clear lines between where one process ends and the next one starts.
Developing a flowchart stimulates communication among participants and
establishes a common understanding about the process. Flowcharts also
uncover steps that are redundant or misplaced.
Flowcharts are used to help team members, to identify who provides
inputs or resources to whom, to establish important areas for monitoring or data
collection, to identify areas for improvement or increased efficiency, and to
generate hypotheses about causes.
It is recommended that flowcharts be created through group discussion,
as individuals rarely know the entire process and the communication
contributes to improvement.
Flowcharts are very useful for documenting a process (simple or complex)
as it eases the understanding of the process.
Flowcharts are also very useful to communicate to others how a process
is performed and enables understanding of the logic of a process.

Flowchart Symbols and Guidelines

Flowcharts are usually drawn using some standard symbols; however,
some special symbols can also be developed when required. Some standard
symbols, which are frequently required for flowcharting many computer
programs are shown.
Terminator: An oval flow chart shape indicates the start or end of the process,
usually containing the word “Start” or “End”.

14
Process: A rectangular flow chart shape indicates a normal/generic process flow
step. For example, “Add 1 to X”, “M = M*F” or similar.

Decision: A diamond flow chart shape indicates a branch in the process flow.
This symbol is used when a decision needs to be made, commonly a Yes/No
question or True/False test.

Connector: A small, labelled, circular flow chart shape used to indicate a jump
in the process flow. Connectors are generally used in complex or multi-sheet
diagrams.
On-page off-page

Data: A parallelogram that indicates data input or output (I/O) for a process.
Examples: Get X from the user, Display X.

Arrow: used to show the flow of control in a process. An arrow coming from one
symbol and ending at another symbol represents that control passes to the
symbol the arrow points to.

These are the basic symbols used generally. Now, the basic guidelines for
drawing a flowchart with the above symbols are that:
In drawing a proper flowchart, all necessary requirements should be listed
out in logical order.
The flowchart should be neat, clear and easy to follow. There should not
be any room for ambiguity in understanding the flowchart.
The flowchart is to be read left to right or top to bottom.
A process symbol can have only one flow line coming out of it.

15
 For a decision symbol, only one flow line can enter it, but multiple lines
can leave it to denote possible answers.
The terminal symbols can only have one flow line in conjunction with
them.

Constructs for Developing Flowchart

Sequence
Steps that execute in sequence are represented by symbols that follow
each other top to bottom or left to right. Top to bottom is the standard. Any one
of the processes could be replaced by another structure (for example, a single
process "box" could be replaced by a sequence of two process "boxes").

the total amount purchased in a fast food center. Assume the following unit price
of each commodity:
Spaghetti - P65.00
Cheeseburger - P45.00
Soft drinks - P20.00
Fried Chicken - P45.00

2. Create an algorithm that computes the average grade of a student, given his

3. Create an algorithm that will compute the weekly salary of an employee. The
algorithm will ask for the number of days worked and the rate per day.

Selection
Once the condition is evaluated, the control flows into one of two paths.
Once the conditional execution is finished, the flows rejoin before leaving the
structure. Once again the single entry, single exit nature of a structure is evident.
Either process could be replaced with any structure (sequence, selection, or
repetition) or it could be omitted (for example the process on the "NO" side might
not exist).
As an alternative, the "Question" could be replaced with a Boolean
expression and the branches labelled "TRUE" and "FALSE".

the process could be replacing another structure).
Notice that the return line joins the entry line before the question. Never
try to insert processing in the entry line between the join and the question.
