What is programming?

1. Programming is how you get computers to solve problems.

   • Computer programs (or software) are what make computers work. Without software, modern computers are just complicated machines for turning electricity into heat. It’s software on your computer that runs your operating system, browser, email, games, movie player – just about everything.

2. These three concepts are the basic logical structures in computer programming:

   • Repetition: doing the same thing more than once
   • Selection: making choices
   • Sequence: running instructions in order

3. Programming Languages

   • C
   • Java
   • Ruby
   • Basic
   • python

4. Characteristics

   • The programming is given from algorithms or steps that will be executed sequentially.
   • It is necessary to use a programming language to be able to make the computer understand them.
   • Each action carried out by the computer has been programmed with a code so that the final objective is fulfilled.
