AP Computer Science Principles Unit 1- Computational Thinking strong password - ANS->>a password that is easy for a user to remember but would be difficult for someone else to guess based on knowledge of that user. algorithm - ANS->>a finite set of instructions that accomplish a specific task. Every algorithm can be constructed using combinations of sequencing, selection, and iteration. abstraction - ANS->>the process of reducing complexity by focusing on the main idea. By hiding details irrelevant to the question at hand and bringing together related and useful details, abstraction reduces complexity and allows one to focus on the idea. sequencing - ANS->>the application of each step of an algorithm in the order in which the code statements are given. selection - ANS->>this determines which parts of an algorithm are executed based on a condition being true or false. iteration - ANS->>a repeating portion of an algorithm. Iteration repeats a specified number of times or until a given condition is met. encryption - ANS->>the process of encoding data to prevent unauthorized access. decryption - ANS->>the process of decoding the data. programming language - ANS->>a formal language comprising a set of instructions that produce various kinds of output..
