Competencies(Page 1 of 2) • Describe the six steps of programming • Discuss design tools including top-down design, pseudocode, flowcharts, and logic structures • Describe program testing and the tools for finding and removing errors Page 4398
Competencies(Page 2 of 2) • Describe CASE tools and object-oriented software development • Explain the five generations of programming languages Page 398
Introduction • In this chapter programming is described in two parts: (1) the steps in the programming process and (2) some of the programming languages available. • Programming is part of Phase 4, systems development, in the systems life cycle. • Competent end users need to understand the relationship between systems development and programming. Page 399
Programs and Programming • What is a Program? • A problem-solving procedure • A list of instructions • Prewritten • Custom-written • Application software • System software Page 400
What is Programming? • Programming is software development • Six step procedure • Program specification • Program design • Program code • Program test • Program documentation • Program maintenance Page 400
Step 1: Program Specification • Also called programs definition or program analysis • 5 Step Process • Program Objectives • Desired Output • Input Data • Processing Requirements • Document Program Specifications Page 401
Program Objectives • Objectives are the problems that you are trying to solve • Programming requires a clear statement of the problem that you are looking to address Return Page 401
Program Specification Steps Continued • Desired output • Input Data • Processing Requirements • Program Specifications Document End user’s sketch of desired output Example of statement of hours worked Page 402
Step 2: Program Design • Plan a solution • Use structured programming techniques • Top-down program design • Pseudocode • Flowcharts • Logic structures Page 403
Step 3: Program Code • Writing the program or coding • The good program • Reliable • Catch input errors • Understandable to other programmers • Structured programs best method • Use the most appropriate computer language • Coding Page 407
Coding • Formatting or presentation language • Programming language Page 408
Step 4: Program Test • Debugging • Testing • Eliminating errors • Syntax errors • Logic errors • Testing process Page 422
Step 5: Program Documentation • Written descriptions and procedures about a program • Important for people who will use the program • Users • Operators • Programmers Page 411
Step 6: Program Maintenance • 75% of total lifetime cost • Error-free operations • Effective program • Two categories • Operations • Changing needs Page 412
Case Tools • Computer-aided software engineering (CASE) • Automate development process • Designing • Coding • Testing activities Page 414
Object-Oriented Software Development • Focuses less on procedures, more on relationship between objects • OOP: Object-oriented programming • Object contains both the data and the processing operations Page 415
Generations of Programming Languages (Page 1 of 2) • Occurring in “generations” or “levels” • Levels-Machine languages to natural languages • There are five generations : • Lower level closer to machine language • Higher level closer to human-like language Page 415
Generations of Programming Languages (Page 2 of 2) • 1st -- Machine languages • 2nd -- Assembly languages • 3rd -- High level procedural languages (3GL) • 4th -- Problem-Oriented languages (4GL) • 5th -- Natural Languages & Visual programming languages (5GL) Page 415
Language Translators • compiler compiling linking resource code========>.obj=======>.exe • interpreter
Discussion Questions(Page 1 of 2) • Identify and discuss each of the six steps of programming. • Describe CASE tools and OOP. How does CASE assist programmers? • What is meant by “generation” in reference to programming languages? What is the difference between low-level and high-level languages? Page 428
Discussion Questions(Page 2 of 2) • What is the difference between a compiler and an interpreter? • What are logic structures? Describe the differences between the three logic types. Page 428
