ICT Programming & Logic Lessons 1 & 2

A set of step-by-step instructions that must be executed to result in a solution or to perform a task.

• Algorithm

• Debugging

• Syntax

• Execute

Identifying errors and make necessary corrections to meet the program's intended outcome.

• Instruction

• Debugging

• Pseudocode

• Algorithm

The process of using a pencil and paper to work through the program by hand.

• Logic Error

• Instructions

• Desk Checking

• High Level Language

Graphical diagrams that are used to show the steps, or flow, contained in an algorithm.

• Desk Checking

• Machine Language

• Runtime Error

• Flow Chart

The program will run but there is an error in a program that makes it do something other than what the programmer intended.

• Logic Error

• Runtime Error

• Desk Checing

• Assembly Language

Progressively moving from one connected thought to another to solve a problem or complete a task.

• Desk Checking

• Logically Thinking

• Syntax

• Compiler

The process of finding solutions to difficult or complex issues.

• Binary

• Machine Language

• Problem Solving

• Syntax

Shorthand notation for programming. Writing out the steps of algorithm steps using short phrases. Fake code..

• Syntax

• Logic Error

• Desk Checking

• Pseudocode

An error that does not occur until the program has started to execute but that prevents the program from continuing.

• Runtime Error

• Logical Thinking

• Syntax

• Interpreter

Usually found by the compiler or interpreter when it does not understand or recognize code given, such as a typo, misspelling or missing code.

• Logic

• Syntax Error

• Machine Language

• Problem Solving
