COMPUTER

PRACTICE N4
WHAT IS COMPUTATIONAL THINKING?

• Computational thinking is a problem solving process that involves various


techniques and thought processes borrowed from computer science, it
includes skills such as decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction and
algorithmic thinking, enabling individuals to approach complex problems
by breaking them down into more manageable parts, identifying patterns
and developing step-by-step solutions. Computational thinking is not just
about programming, it is a fundamental skill that can be applied across
various disciplines to enhance critical thinking and analytical abilities.
DECOMPOSITION

• Breaking down a complex problem into smaller, more. manageable


parts .
PATTERN RECOGNITION

• Looking for similarities among and within problems and


making connections between similar problems and
experiences.
ABSTRACTION

• Focusing on the important information only, ignoring


irrelevant detail, organising and analysing data.
ALGORITHMS

• Developing a step-by-step solution to the problem, or the


rules to follow to solve the problem.
