Study Notes
Programming Fundamentals
- A developer analyzes problems and creates solutions through programming.
- A program is an organized set of instructions.
- Code is a sequence of instructions a computer can follow.
- Input is any data provided to a program.
- Output is the data generated by the program.
- An object is a combination of related variables and functions.
- A statement is a single line of code.
- A script is a set of steps or instructions.
- An IDE (Integrated Development Environment) provides tools to build applications.
- Syntax is similar to human language, and computer programming languages have their own rules.
- Errors are broken pieces in the code.
- Completion Errors: indicate an incomplete piece of code.
- Syntax Errors: code that doesn't follow the rules of the programming language.
- Runtime/Exception Errors: errors that occur during program execution.
Programming Languages
- Machine Language: Uses binary code (0s and 1s).
- Assembly Language: Human-readable code that an assembler translates into machine code.
- Procedural Language: Code is interpreted, does not need to be compiled.
- Scripting Language: Code is read and executed by an interpreter.
- Functional Language: Programs are built by combining functions.
- Logic-Based Language: Software designed as objects, focusing on rules and logic.
- Object-Oriented Language: Uses objects with associated data and methods.
Programming Languages Examples
- JavaScript: Multipurpose language for front-end and back-end web development. Designed for interactive web pages. Source code example:
console.log(). - Java: General-purpose, object-oriented language, used for simplifying design and maintenance. Source code example:
System.out.println(). - Python: Versatile, easy to learn. Widely used in Data Science, web development, machine learning, and software testing. Source code example:
print(). - C++: Popular, fast language frequently used in databases. Known for its speed and agility. Source code example:
printf(). - C: Older, powerful language used in various industries. Source code example:
std::cout().
