Algorithm

• A programming language with many commands and features designed to make common tasks easier to program. Any high level functionality is encapsulated as combinations of low level commands.

• To repeat in order to achieve, or get closer to, a desired goal.

• A precise sequence of instructions for processes that can be executed by a computer.

• Putting commands in correct order so computers can read the commands.

High Level Programming Language

• A problem solving approach (also known as stepwise design) in which you break down a system to gain insight into the sub-systems that make it up.

• a simplified representation of something more complex. Allows you to hide details to help you manage complexity, focus on relevant concepts, and reason about problems at a higher level.

• A method of programming in which two programmers write code using a single computer. One programmer in the "driver" role uses the mouse and keyboard to actually write the code while a second acts as a "navigator", keeping track of the big picture, catching errors, and making suggestions. Programmers switch roles frequently and communicate throughout the process.

• A programming language with many commands and features designed to make common tasks easier to program. Any high level functionality is encapsulated as combinations of low level commands.

Low Level Programming Language

• A classic method for learning programming with commands to control movement and drawing of an on-screen robot called a "turtle". The turtle hearkens back to early implementations in which children programmed a physical robot whose dome-like shape was reminiscent of a turtle.

• A named group of programming instructions. Functions are reusable abstractions that reduce the complexity of writing and maintaining programs.

• A programming language with many commands and features designed to make common tasks easier to program. Any high level functionality is encapsulated as combinations of low level commands.

• A programming language that captures only the most primitive operations available to a machine. Anything that a computer can do can be represented with combinations of low level commands.

Iterate

• To repeat in order to achieve, or get closer to, a desired goal.

• A generic term for a type of programming statement (usually an if-statement) that uses a Boolean condition to determine, or select, whether or not to run a certain block of statements.

• A collection of commands made available to a programmer.

• Putting commands in correct order so computers can read the commands.

Selection

Abstraction

• ·A generic term for a type of programming statement (usually an if-statement) that uses a Boolean condition to determine, or select, whether or not to run a certain block of statements.

• A named group of programming instructions. Reusable abstractions that reduce the complexity of writing and maintaining programs.

• A simplified representation of something more complex. Allows you to hide details to help you manage complexity, focus on relevant concepts, and reason about problems at a higher level.

• A collection of commands / functions, typically with a shared purpose.

Function

• A base-16 number system that uses sixteen distinct symbols 0-9 and A-F to represent numbers from 0 to 15.

• A problem solving approach (also known as stepwise design) in which you break down a system to gain insight into the sub-systems that make it up.
