Solving Problems Stages • Problem Definition • Define the main Problem • Problem Analysis • Determine the inputs, outputs, Arithmetic & logic operations Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Third Edition
Problem Analysis • Write a Program to Print the Sum of two integer Numbers Inputs : • First Number • Second Number Operations : • Summation = first + second Output : • The summation Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Third Edition
Problem Analysis • Write a program to Print the Average of three integer numbers Inputs : • First Number • Second Number • Third Number Operations : • Average = (first + second + third ) / 3 Output : • The Average Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Third Edition
Problem Analysis • Write a program to print the volume of a cube and the sum of it’s surfaces’ areas Inputs : • Side Length Operations : • Volume = side * side * side • Surface area = ( side * side ) * 6 Output : • The Volume • The surface area Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Third Edition
Solving Problems Stages Problem Definition Algorithm Problem Analysis Solution Design Design a solution for the problem by writing an algorithm or drawing a flow chart Flow Chart Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Third Edition
Basic steps for designing a solution Read all the inputs Calculate operations Print the output Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Third Edition
Algorithms • Write a Program to Print the Sum of two integer Numbers • Start the program • Read the first number ( N1 ) • Read the second number ( N2 ) • Sum the both numbers in ( Sum ) Sum = N1 + N2 • Print the variable ( Sum ) • End the program Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Third Edition
Algorithms • Write a program to Print the Average of three integer numbers • Start the program • Read the first number ( num1 ) • Read the second number ( num2 ) • Read the third number ( num3 ) • Sum the three numbers in ( result ) result = num1 + num2 + num3 Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Third Edition
Algorithms • Write a program to Print the Average of three integer numbers • Divide the ( result ) by 3 and save the result in ( Average ) Average = result / 3 • Print the ( Average ) • End the program Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Third Edition
Algorithms • Write a program to print the volume of a cube and the sum of it’s surfaces’ areas • Start the program • Read the length of the side ( Length ) • Volume = Length * Length * Length • Surface = ( Length * Length ) * 6 • Print the ( Volume ) • Print the ( Surface ) • End the program Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Third Edition
Organization of Instructions • Instructions that describe behavior can be organized in three ways in most programming languages: • Sequentially • Conditionally (Selection) • Repetitively Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Third Edition
Conditionally (Selection) • Sequentially • Repetitively Java Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design, Third Edition
