Introduction to programming

Metholgy based on algorithms, in order to solve problems

Finite set of steps

Each step is called a sentence or instruction

Allows to solve a problem

They can be expresed in

Flowcharts

Pseudocodes

They are the solutions created with a computer

Series of oprations to reach a result

In order to program you must know the functions that a computer can perform

Set of character symbols and rules written in a certain way

Allows to communicate with the computer

It has a set of instructions in order to reach a solution

Data storage

Input and output

Calculation

Text manipulation

Logic

Design the program in the form of a flow diagram or pseudocode

This is done because it enables to translate the program into another programming language if necessary
