Modern Programming

Before a computer can be used to solve a given problem, it must first be programmed, that is, prepared for solving the problem by being given a set of instructions, or program. Various programs by which a computer controls aspects of its operation are known as software.

The process of software development consists of the following steps:

1. Defining the problem – describing the problem and developing technical assignment;
2. Creating the program specification – decomposing the program into sepаrate operations, developing a necessary flowchart (a diagram showing the order of operations and data flow);
3. Coding the solution - writing a program using programming languages for realizing program specification algorithm;
4. Checking the solution – debugging and testing the created program;
5. Completing the documentation – gathering and verifying all documents with the program.

As you see programming is only the third step in software development process. An algorithm is a finite sequence of well-understood steps that are followed to solve a particular problem or

 

produce a particular result and a program is an algorithm that has been implemented in a particular programming language.

Programs can be written using many different computer languages. Programming languages can be divided into low-level, high-level and special languages.

 

Exercise 3. Translate the following word combinations.

To solve a given problem, to give a set of instructions, to control aspects of computer operation, to be known as software, to define the problem, to decompose the program into sepаrate operations, to develop a necessary flowchart, to debug and test the created program, to gather and verify all documents, software development process, a particular programming language.

- розробляти блок-схему	- разрабатывать блок-схему
- послідовність операцій	- последовательность операций
