Computal Thinking

Computal Thinking

1. pattern recognition

   • the process of identifying repeated elements to avoid solving the same problem more than once.
   • eg. Repeat 3 times; move forward (2) , turn left

2. Abstraction

   • removing unnecessary detail from a problem to create a simpler problem
   • eg. London Underground map, diagrams, models

3. algorithms

   • a set of step-by-step instructions to solve a problem
   • eg. flow chart

4. the act of taking a large problem and breaking it into smaller problems

   • decomposition
