PHYTHON

1. a computer device that takes in input and has an output

   • it does what you tell it to do
     • that is a program
     • in small steps
       • sequence instructions
         • in a chronological order
           • it will follow steps and solve the problem
         • however you can swap some steps and the outcome will be the same
       • algorithm
         • a set of instructions to peform a task
     • identation
       • when the code isn't directly on the next line there is a space before the code begins on that line
   • the computer isn't clever and needs simple steps
     • decomposition
       • breaking up the program into small tasks so that the computer can solve the problem
