    Study Notes

    Software and Engineering Basics

    • Software comprises programs with instructions that fulfill specific functionalities.
    • Engineering involves the design and construction of solutions, focusing on effectiveness and cost-efficiency.

    Software Engineering Overview

    • Encompasses design, development, testing, and maintenance of software.
    • Emphasizes a systematic and disciplined method to produce high-quality, reliable, and maintainable software.

    Key Principles of Software Engineering

    • Modularity: Decomposes software into smaller, reusable components for independent development and testing.
    • Abstraction: Conceals implementation details of components, exposing only essential functionalities.
    • Encapsulation: Bundles data and methods within an object, shielding internal state from outside interference.
    • Reusability: Facilitates the use of components across multiple projects, conserving time and resources.
    • Maintenance: Involves regular updates to fix bugs, enhance features, and improve security.
    • Testing: Confirms that software meets specified requirements and is devoid of errors.
    • Design Patterns: Offers established solutions for common problems in software design.
    • Agile Methodologies: Promotes iterative and incremental development, prioritizing customer satisfaction and swift delivery.
    • Continuous Integration & Deployment: Advocates the regular integration of code changes and their deployment into production.

    Main Attributes of Software Engineering

    • Efficiency: Measures the resource requirements of software products effectively.
    • Reliability: Ensures consistent performance under similar conditions.
    • Reusability: Guarantees modules can be applied in various applications.
