Problem Solving and Algorithms

Problem Solving and Algorithms

1. Step 1 Description: It is like when you want to have a new garden with exotic plants, the client will decide what plants he wants and the gardener is responsible to create the conditions for those plants. The gardener is the developer and the client is the one describing what he wants to achieve.

2. Step 2 Analyze: The developer must analyze the whole process searching for all the data that he or she can obtain. The developer also needs to start thinking what is the beginning and ending point.

3. Step 3: Develop a high-level algorithm. In this step, you must start thinking a solution but avoiding entering into details.

4. Step 4: Refine the algorithm by adding more detail. During this step, we will add more detail. We must be careful to make sure that adding more detail won't mean that other people wouldn't be able to understand us. We can add more detail but we must try it to be readable.

5. Step 5: Step 5: Review the algorithm. In the final step, we need to check if there are any points in the algorithm that can be optimized.

6. Definition: An algorithm is a thought way to solve a problem following a process.
