Pillars of Computational Thinking

What is the primary focus of computational thinking?

• Programming robots to perform complex tasks.

• Developing specialized software for computers.

• Applying critical and logical thinking to solve problems efficiently.

• Memorizing algorithms for various mathematical equations.

Which pillar of computational thinking involves dividing a difficult problem into simpler, more manageable parts?

• Abstraction

• Decomposition

• Pattern Recognition

• Algorithmic Thinking

When applying abstraction in computational thinking, what is the main objective?

• To identify recurring elements across different problems.

• To break down a large problem into smaller sub-problems.

• To focus on the essential details and disregard irrelevant information.

• To create a step-by-step solution for a problem.
