Algorithm a set of steps or processes to solve a problem
Conditional a statement of truth. A choice, based on a truth decision.
In programming, a condition is a choice of whether the
expression is true or false.
Function a combination of variables and operators
Iteration to do again, a repetition of an existing process
Method a set of instructions telling a computer the operations to
perform for a problem solution
Procedure A method that stores an algorithm, a task to be accomplished
,Variable A programming word made up of letters, numbers,
and/or allowable symbols which holds data for the
program
Nested condition when there is an if condition followed by another if condition
What are logic based if p then q: p is the hypothesis and the q is the conclusion or
statements symbolized by in result
math
decision statement a decision, a choice, a branch must be taken based on the truth
of the statement.
if statement a type of algorithm providing a solution to a small problem
variable types decimal, integer, boolean, string
Why variable types a variable must be defined as a type so that the
computer understands how to store the information that
you would like.
decimal Numbers with a fractional part to the right of the decimal
point. Example 24.56 or -32.0671
integer Numbers that are whole numbers or numbers without a
fractional part. All the numbers ..., -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, ...
string Characters
boolean ones and zeros 1 is true 0 is false
short circuit on a compound condition the first condition will determine
whether the second condition needs to be read and
evaluated.
"and" requirment and requires the condition on both sides of the and to be true
"or" requirement requires only one condition on the two sides of the
"or" to be true
, Abstraction means that we as programmers do not need to know
everything. We can accept that the procedure or function
statement in Alice (also called methods) will work as
designed by the programmers of these.
iterations repeating the process again and again, until something
causes the process to stop
Count loop a special loop that counts to the number that you tell it
and does all the instructions the number of times you
indicate
the number of times that the loop occurs is the number of
iterations of the procedure. We as the programmer write
Count and iteration
the inside of the loop, what is to happen each time the loop
operates.
To compile to use a compiler for your program code, source code, and
translate that code into machine language. Your program
code is the source code. Machine language is also called
object code or bytecode. An interpreter may further
interpret the bytecode a line at a time for execution.
high level language a language that uses words of your language and math
source code concept. ALICE
low level language often in binary form. Machine code. It is an abstraction
what are Compile time are found by the compiler or the IDE
errors found by
IDE integrated development environment. Alice. a
userfriendly programming environment called an
application program
