The document outlines the role of a programmer, detailing their responsibilities in designing, writing, testing, debugging, and maintaining source code using various programming languages. It emphasizes the importance of converting problem solutions into computer-understandable instructions and refers to natural languages that resemble English for better communication with users. Additionally, it highlights the evolution of programming languages, including assembly and fifth-generation languages.
Introduction to Programming
- 4. The person who designs the program, decides which of the programs or set of instructions to use and tests the program to see if it is working as designed. Figures out the process of designing, writing, testing, debugging/troubleshooting and maintaining the source code of computer programs. This source code is written in a programming language so the computer can 'understand' it. The code may be a modification of an existing source or something completely new. It converts problem solutions into instructions for the computer.
- 5. Identifying the Problem Planning the Solution Coding the Program Testing the Program Documentation
- 14. Assembly Languages or SecondGeneration Programming Language
- 16. These languages are considered to be that fifth generation languages. These programming languages are called natural languages because of their resemblance to English language. Natural Languages have the capability to translate human instruction into code that a computer understands. If it gets confused with the user’s instructions, it asks for further explanation.
