Program (chapt 1) A set of instructions a computer follows to perform a
task. Example: A calculator app.
,Hardware vs Software (chapt 1) Hardware = physical parts (CPU, keyboard). Software
= programs (Word, apps).
CPU (chapt 1) Central Processing Unit
The brain of the computer that runs instructions using
the fetch-decode-execute cycle.
RAM vs Secondary Storage (chapt 1) RAM (random access memory)= temporary memory
(erased when off).
Secondary storage = permanent (SSD, USB).
Input vs Output Devices (chapt 1) Input = data into computer (keyboard). Output =
results from computer (monitor).
Bit and Byte (chapt 1) Bit = 0 or 1.
Byte = 8 bits.
All data is stored in binary.
High-Level vs Machine Language High-level = human readable (C#). Machine language
(chapt 1) = binary (0s and 1s).
Compiler vs Interpreter (chapt 1) Compiler: translates whole program before running.
Interpreter: translates line by line.
, GUI (chapt 1) Graphical User Interface with buttons/icons.
Example: Windows desktop.
Object (OOP) (chapt 1) Object oriented programming (OOP)
A program component with properties (data stored)
and methods (actions).
Example: Button with color property and click
method.
Program Development Cycle (chapt 1) Analyze → Design → Code → Fix errors → Test.
Input-Process-Output (IPO) (chapt 1) Input data → Process it → Output result. Example:
2+2 → Add → 4.
Algorithm (chapt 1) Step-by-step instructions to solve a problem.
Example: Recipe.
