Computational Thinking_1

1. Decomposition

   • Breaking a complex problem into smaller parts
   • Simpler and easier
   • Examining each small part in detail
   • Finding all the necessary parts

2. Algorithms

   • A flowchart in other words
   • Helps keep things in order
   • You use iteration in it sometimes
   • There are terminaters which is start/stop
   • There are individual stages
   • There are motors, variables, inputs and outputs.

3. Pattern recognition

   • Used to find a pattern
   • Key pieces of information to locate a pattern
   • Looking for similarities among problems
   • Patterns must have more than 2 references

4. Abstraction

   • Ignoring all the unuseful information
   • It makes complex problems seem less complex
   • It also helps when you need something simple and short
