- 3. ALGORITHMS AND FLOWCHARTS •A typical programming task can be divided into two phases: • Problem solving phase • produce an ordered sequence of steps that describe solution of problem • this sequence of steps is called an algorithm • Implementation phase • implement the program in some programming language
- 4. Steps in ProblemSolving • First produce a general algorithm (one can use pseudocode) • Refine the algorithm successively to get step by step detailed algorithm that is very close to a computer language. • Pseudocode is an artificial and informal language that helps programmers develop algorithms. Pseudocode is very similar to everyday English.
- 5. Pseudocode & Algorithm •Example 1: Write an algorithm to determine a student’s final grade and indicate whether it is passing or failing. The final grade is calculated as the average of four marks.
- 6. Pseudocode & Algorithm Pseudocode: •Input a set of 4 marks • Calculate their average by summing and dividing by 4 • if average is below 50 Print “FAIL” else Print “PASS”
- 7. Pseudocode & Algorithm •Detailed Algorithm • Step 1: Input M1,M2,M3,M4 Step 2: GRADE (M1+M2+M3+M4)/4 Step 3: if (GRADE < 50) then Print “FAIL” else Print “PASS” endif
- 8. The Flowchart • (Dictionary)A schematic representation of a sequence of operations, as in a manufacturing process or computer program. • (Technical) A graphical representation of the sequence of operations in an information system or program. Information system flowcharts show how data flows from source documents through the computer to final distribution to users. Program flowcharts show the sequence of instructions in a single program or subroutine. Different symbols are used to draw each type of flowchart.
- 9. The Flowchart A Flowchart •shows logic of an algorithm • emphasizes individual steps and their interconnections • e.g. control flow from one action to the next
- 10. Flowchart Symbols Basic Oval Parallelogram Rectangle Diamond Hybrid Name SymbolUse in Flowchart Denotes the beginning or end of the program Denotes an input operation Denotes an output operation Denotes a decision (or branch) to be made. The program should continue along one of two routes. (e.g. IF/THEN/ELSE) Denotes a process to be carried out e.g. addition, subtraction, division etc. Flow line Denotes the direction of logic flow in the program
- 11. Example PRINT “PASS” Step 1: InputM1,M2,M3,M4 Step 2: GRADE (M1+M2+M3+M4)/4 Step 3: if (GRADE <50) then Print “FAIL” else Print “PASS” endif START Input M1,M2,M3,M4 GRADE(M1+M2+M3+M4)/4 IS GRADE<5 0 PRINT “FAIL” STOP Y N

- 13. Example 2 Algorithm • Step1: Input Lft • Step 2: Lcm Lft x 30 • Step 3: Print Lcm START Input Lft Lcm Lft x 30 Print Lcm STOP Flowchart
- 14. Example 3 Write analgorithm and draw a flowchart that will read the two sides of a rectangle and calculate its area. Pseudocode • Input the width (W) and Length (L) of a rectangle • Calculate the area (A) by multiplying L with W • Print A
- 15. Example 3 Algorithm • Step1: Input W,L • Step 2: A L x W • Step 3: Print A START Input W, L A L x W Print A STOP
- 16. Example 4 • Writean algorithm and draw a flowchart that will calculate the roots of a quadratic equation • Hint: d = sqrt ( ), and the roots are: x1 = (– b + d)/2a and x2 = (–b – d)/2a 2 0 ax bx c 2 4 b ac
- 17. Example 4 Pseudocode: • Inputthe coefficients (a, b, c) of the quadratic equation • Calculate d • Calculate x1 • Calculate x2 • Print x1 and x2
- 18. Example 4 • Algorithm: •Step 1: Input a, b, c • Step 2: d sqrt ( ) • Step 3: x1 (–b + d) / (2 x a) • Step 4: x2 (–b – d) / (2 x a) • Step 5: Print x1, x2 START Input a, b, c d sqrt(b x b – 4 x a x c) Print x1 ,x2 STOP x1 (–b + d) / (2 x a) X2 (–b – d) / (2 x a) 4 b b a c
- 19. DECISION STRUCTURES • Theexpression A>B is a logical expression • it describes a condition we want to test • if A>B is true (if A is greater than B) we take the action on left • print the value of A • if A>B is false (if A is not greater than B) we take the action on right • print the value of B

- 21. IF–THEN–ELSE STRUCTURE • Thestructure is as follows If condition then true alternative else false alternative endif
- 22. IF–THEN–ELSE STRUCTURE • Thealgorithm for the flowchart is as follows: If A>B then print A else print B endif is A>B Print B Print A Y N
