- 1AlgorithmA set of unambiguous instructions for a computer to execute.
- 2PsuedocodeA way of representation code which is not specific to any language, so that all coders can understand it.
- 3Flow ChartA graphical representation of a flow chart so that all people can understand what it means.
- 4Plain English AngorithmAn algorithm described in plain English, very easy to understand.
- 5SelectionWhen an algorithm makes a decision, usually dependent on variables having certain values.
- 6SequenceAll algorithms will execute in order.
- 7IterationIs when an algorithm or part of one is repeated. In some cases, an algorithm may repeat something UNTIL a variable is changed.
- 8PurposeTo complete a set task in a finite amount of time.
- 9RepresentationsPsuedocode
Flow Chart
Plain English - 10Dry RunTesting out an algorithm on paper.
- 11Accuracy (why is it important?)As small computer errors can make large errors to the outcome of the code.
