Introduction

Software Problem
What is Problem?
• "The Problem" in the context of programming
usually refers to a specific challenge or task that
a programmer or developer needs to solve using
code. It could be a task such as designing a new
software feature, fixing a bug in existing code,
optimizing performance, or creating a complete
application from scratch.
What is Problem Solving?
• Programmers often go through a process of
problem-solving, which involves understanding the
problem, breaking it down into smaller components,
designing an algorithm or solution, writing the
code, testing and debugging, and finally, delivering
a working solution. The ability to effectively
identify, analyze, and solve problems is a
fundamental skill for programmers.
What is a Software?
• Software refers to a collection of programs, data,
instructions, and other non-tangible components that
enable a computer or electronic device to perform
specific tasks, functions, or operations. It is a set of
instructions that tells a computer how to execute various
tasks and operations.
Types of Software:
• System Software
• Application Software
How to Brainstorming regarding
their problem?
• Brainstorming is a creative process used to generate
ideas, solutions, and approaches to a specific problem. In
the context of programming or software development,
brainstorming can help you come up with innovative
solutions, strategies, and approaches to tackle challenges
you may encounter.
• Understand the Problem, Gather a diverse Team, Set Clear Guides,
Create a comfortable environment, using brainstorming techniques,
Encourage Quantity and Diversity, Build upon Ideas, No Criticism,
Capture Ideas, Review & select, further development.
Brain Storming Techniques?

• Mind Mapping
• Free Writing
• Round Robin
• Reverse Barnstorming
• Brain writing
How to Divide the Problem by
using Professional Techniques?
• Functional Decomposition
• Top Down Design
• Bottom Up Design
• Use Case Analysis
• Object Oriented Decomposition
• Dependency Analysis
• Critical Path Analysis
How does Programming Language
Help us to solve complex Problems?

• Abstraction and Modularity


• Algorithm Implementation
• Data Manipulation and Processing
• Automation and Repetition
• Simulation and Modeling
Introduction To Computer Problem
Solving Technique
• Computer problem solving is the process of
using logical and systematic approaches to
analyze, devise solutions for, and resolve
challenges encountered in computing and
programming. This technique is crucial for
programmers, developers, and IT professionals
to effectively tackle complex issues and create
efficient solutions.
How do Computer Solve your
Problems?

• Computers solve problems through a


combination of hardware, software, and
algorithms. They follow precise instructions to
process data, perform calculations, make
decisions, and produce desired outcomes.
• By using Input, Processing, Data Manipulation,
Decision Making, Storage, Iteration & Loops,
Output, Feedback & Interaction etc.
Introduction to Problem Solving
Skills

• Problem-solving skills are essential abilities that


enable individuals to identify, analyze, and
resolve challenges, obstacles, and issues they
encounter in various aspects of life. These skills
encompass a combination of cognitive,
analytical, creative, and practical techniques
that help individuals approach problems in a
systematic and effective manner
What is Problem Solving Method?
• Define the Problem
• Gather Information
• Generate Possible Solutions
• Evaluate Options
• Select Best Solution
• Develop an Action Phase
• Implement the Solution
• Monitor & Evaluate
• Reflect & Learn
• Iterate & Refine
• Communication & Document the Process
Assignment 01
