Computer Programming &

Pseudocode
• An Introduction to Programming Concepts,
Pseudocode, and Variables
Introduction to Computer
Programming
• Programming is the process of writing
instructions for a computer to execute.
What is a Programming Language?
• A programming language is used to write
computer programs.
• Examples: Python, Java, C++, JavaScript.
Types of Programming Languages
• 1. High-Level Languages (Python, Java)
• 2. Low-Level Languages (Assembly, Machine
Code)
What is Pseudocode?
• Pseudocode is a way to plan algorithms using
a human-readable format before coding.
Why Use Pseudocode?
• 1. Helps in algorithm design
• 2. Improves logic development
• 3. Easier to translate into actual code
Writing Pseudocode – Basic Rules
• 1. Use simple language
• 2. Indent to show structure
• 3. Avoid syntax of specific languages
Example of Pseudocode
• BEGIN
• INPUT user_name
• PRINT 'Hello, ' + user_name
• END
Understanding Variables in
Programming
• Variables store data values that can change
during program execution.
Variable Types & Data Types
• Examples:
• - Integer (Whole numbers)
• - Float (Decimal numbers)
• - String (Text)
• - Boolean (True/False)
Declaring & Using Variables
• Example in Python:
• name = 'Alice'
• age = 25
• print('Name:', name, 'Age:', age)
Importance of Variables in
Programs
• Variables allow programs to store and
manipulate data dynamically.
