UNIT - 3 PROBLEM SOLVING AND OFFICE AUTOMATION

Program Program is a collection of instructions that will perform some task.

Problem Solving Steps Analyse the problem. Identify the solution for the problem and divide it into small task. Algorithm has to be prepared. Based on the algorithm the program will be created. Then it has to be executed.

Program Development Cycle Methodologies Program planning method Waterfall method etc,.

Program planning method Specification Review Informal Design Test & Debug Coding Formal Design Maintaining

Specification review collect the requirements understand the requirements Informal Design Identifies the major tasks Identifies the subtasks Formal Design It converts the informal design to some format that can be understand by others.

Coding It converts the Design into Programs. It translate these programs to machine language. Test & Debug It use sample data to test whether it works properly. It also eliminate the errors.

Maintaining It Modifies the programs if necessary.

Waterfall method Feasibility Analysis Maintenance Testing Impl Design

Feasibility It determines whether it is possible to create the project or not. It also produce the plans and the estimates. Analysis It get the requirements from the customer. It analysis the requirements.

Design It is the process of designing how the requirements to be implemented. Implementation It converts the designs into code. After coding it use language translators to compile the code.

Testing Here the modules are integrated together. Then the project is tested and find whether it meets the customer/user requirements. Maintenance It make modifications based on the customer feedbacks.

Algorithm Algorithm is a finite sequence of instructions required for producing the desired result.

Characteristics The steps in the algorithm must be unambiguous . It should be written in sequence. Ensure that the algorithm will terminate. It should conclude after a finite number of steps.

Factors used to judge the algorithm Time Memory Accuracy Sequence etc,.

Representations Flowcharts Normal English Pseudo code etc,.

Example Addition of two numbers Step1: Start Step2: Read a, b Step3: Add the value of a with b and store the result in c. Step4: Display the value of c Step5: Stop

Flowcharts It is the pictorial representation of the algorithm.

Flowchart Symbols Terminal symbol It is used to represent the start, end of the program logic. Input/Output It is used for input or output. Process Symbol It is used to represent the calculations, data movements, initialization operations etc,.

Decision Symbol It is used to denote a decision to be made at that point Flow lines It is used to connect the symbols Connectors It is used to connect the flow lines.

Guidelines for preparing flowcharts It should be simple. Standard symbols should be used. The flow lines should not intersect each others. In case of complex flowcharts use the connectors symbols.

Only one flow line should enter the process symbol and only one flow line should come out from a process symbol. Only one flow line used with the terminal symbol. START STOP

Only one flow line should enter the decision symbol and two or three flowlines may leave from the decision symbol.

Benefits of Flowcharts Makes Logic Clear Communication Effective Analysis Useful in coding Useful in Testing etc,.

Limits of Flowcharts It is difficult to use flowcharts for large program Difficult to modify Cost etc,.

Pseudocode Pseudo means imitates and code means instruction. It is formal design tool. It is also called Program Design Language.

Keywords READ,GET PRINT,DISPLAY COMPUTE,CALCULATE

Guideline for writing Pseudocode Steps should be understandable Capitalize the keyword. Indent to show hierarchy. End multiple line structure etc,.

Example READ a,b C=a+b WRITE C stop

Example READ a,b IF a>b PRINT a is greater ELSE PRINT b is greater ENDIF stop

Advantage & Disadvantage It can be easily modified It can be understood easily Compare to flowchart it is difficult to understand the program logic.
