A sequential and prioritized list of what needs to be done to create the app the user wants. The list can be technical requirements or user-centric in the form of user stories.

A set of program instructions.

A means to create computer programs by manipulating elements graphically rather than using text. Also called visual programming language

The set of rules that defines the combinations of symbols that are considered to be correctly structured in that language. The grammar and spelling of text-based programming languages.

A technique or process that manages complexity in a program or computer system. Abstraction “hides” details or removes duplication, allowing the programmer to focus on high-level considerations and functions rather than the rules of a programming language.

To identify errors or bugs in computer hardware or programs and fix them.

A process of repeating a set of instructions a specified number of times or until a condition is met, such as in a repetition of a process or a newer version of development in computer science.

The smallest unit of data storage that a program can use. A variable contains known or unknown information referred to as a “value.” Two types of variables are global and local.

A value that is passed to a storage location to be used by the program

A whole number that does not have a decimal or any digits after the decimal

A type of number that provides very precise information by including all the numbers after the decimal.

Text or characters displayed by a program. In MIT App Inventor Blocks view, the text string block lets you manage how text, also known as strings, are seen by the user of an app.

A data type that only has two values, usually denoted as true or false.

A joining together of separate items—without changing them—into one place.

To direct a program to execute or reference a certain procedure.

A set of steps to accomplish a task.

In MIT App Inventor, a control block that looks for inputs or events to know when to perform a specific action.

A term used to describe when someone uses technology to gain access to something they would not otherwise have access to.

A sequence of instructions that continually repeats until a condition is met.

The individual items that make up the whole solution that will benefit the user. Each user story is addressed individually in a prioritized manner during app creation.

In what view do you update the user interface in MIT app inventor?

Any means by which people working with information can rack changes, prevent conflicting data, and keep track of the most current version of their files

Information or signals entered into the computer system is called:

Input or signals produced or delivered by a computer system:

A series of conditionals that a computer moves through until it finds the one that is true.

Stored data that is only used within a small scope of a project and cannot be used by other parts of the program

Stored data that may be used by ant part of the program
