CASE STUDY: Programming Process and Languages

    DEFINITION of TERMS:
            PROGRAM- a set of step by step instructions that directs the computer to do the tasks you want it to do and produce                         the results you want.
            PROGRAMMING PROCESS- it provides a framework for the processing of program and different schemes to                                 systematise programming.
            PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE- a set of rules that provides a way of telling a computer what operation to perform.

"3 STAGES of PROGRAM PROCESS"

            1.) requirements specification including the program language that required
            2.) design including coding and testing
            3.) implementation

"5 MAIN INGREDIENTS of PROGRAM PROCESS"

            1.) Defining the problem
            2.) Planning the solution
                  (a) Flowchart- using symbols
                  (b) Psendocode- an english term
            3.) Coding the program
            4.) Testing the program
            5.)Documenting the program

"LEVELS of PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE"

            1.) Machine Language- used binary digits and letters A-F.
                    Ex. FOD1     245
            2.) Assembly Language-used abbreviations like A for Add and C for Compare.
                    Ex. PROG 8       START
                                              CARDTFIL
            3.) High Level Language- procedural language.
                    Ex. Averaging Integers
                            1. Enter integers that you want.
                            2. Average the integers.
            4.) Very High Level Language- non-procedural language.
                    Ex. TABLE       COLUMN       ALPHABETICAL
            5.) Natural Language- the actual human-like spoken English.
                    Ex. Hello!
                          How may I help you?
