  14. SUMMARY • Advantages of TDSD • The TDSD methodology

  15. Relating Design & Code • Big problems -> lots of pieces! • Difficult to understand & track • relation of pieces to each other • & between pieces of design & code • Pieces of design numbered 1, 2, 3… • Number sub-pieces 1.1, 1.2… & 2.1, 2.2… • Methods require naming pieces in design • Include piece numbers in code too.

  16. The TDSD Methodology • Understand the problem requirements • Break into natural pieces, making sure to fully specify them and the order in which they are to be done • Check whether these pieces done in this sequence solve the problem • If no, revise & recheck until you have a set & order that do correctly solve it! • If/when yes… repeat process with any non-trivial sub-pieces and so on until you only have trivial pieces! • Finally, implement & test each of them separately, then integrate & test whole!

  17. Tips… • Have you FULLY specified ALL the sub-pieces? and exactly how they fit together? • Sub-contracting Have you described the sub-problem in sufficient detail that someone would be able to solve it without any additional knowledge of the original problem? • Don’t be afraid to revise solutions or even scrap them entirely. It is not always possible to find best solution first time! • Don’t start to solve sub-problems until you are absolutely sure that the your proposed solution is correct. Doing so may waste time & effort. • Must go from BIG to small -not small to big!! • Your solutions must demonstrate you understand top-down design –require at least 2 or 3 levels • Robo limited to 20 line methods This must include comments! So ~10 comments + 10 commands (max, remember 7 +- 2)

  18. Advantages of TDSD • Small pieces easier to solve correctly! • Projects easier to manage • divides work naturally • Projects can be completed quicker • easıer to reuse pieces • pieces can be done simultaneously • Projects done in secrecy • workers don’t see big picture • Testing & integration is simplified

  19. Summary • You should have learnt about& understand the rationale for… • Comments • White space • Meaningfully named methods • Method parameters • Pre & post conditions • Repetition • Top down structured design! Happy programming ...BYE
