WEEK 1: Module 1 Home About us Startegy Contact ITE6102- Computer Programming 1 the process that professionals use to write code that instructs how a computer, application or software program performs. CUARTERO, TRISTAN JORGE Page 01  WEEK 1: Module 1 Home About us Startegy Contact This course introduces students to the fundamental concepts of programming using a high-level programming language (e.g., Python, Java, or C++). Topics include data types, control structures, functions, arrays, and file handling. By the end of the course, students will be able to design, write, and debug simple programs. Course Description Page 02  WEEK 1: Module 1 Home About us Startegy Contact Objectives By the end of the course, students will: Understand the basic Write, compile, and execute Use basic control structures principles of programming. simple programs. like loops and conditionals. Work with functions, arrays, Debug and troubleshoot and file I/O. programming errors. Page 03  WEEK 1: Module 1 Home About us Startegy Contact Introduction to Programming The process of writing instructions that a computer can follow to carry out particular tasks is called programming. These instructions, which are expressed in programming languages, enable us to effectively solve complicated problems, automate processes, and regulate the behavior of machines.

It’s a great language for beginners and experienced developers due to its easy-to-understand syntax that mirrors natural language. Java It is popular for building large-scale enterprise applications, mobile apps, and server-side development. It is designed to handle high-performance and scalable systems, making it ideal for large-scale enterprise applications like banking systems, e-commerce platforms, and enterprise resource planning (ERP) software. Page 06  WEEK 1: Module 1 Home About us Startegy Contact Programming C/C++ Languages It is used for system programming, game development, and embedded systems due to its high performance and memory control. It is widely used for system programming, where interaction with hardware is required.

It is challenging for humans to write and understand because it is written in binary (1s and 0s). For instance, 10110000 01100001 might be a straightforward machine code command to shift data. While machine code is quite effective, it is laborious and prone to mistakes when programming. Page 11  WEEK 1: Module 1 Home About us Startegy Contact Assembly Language Machine code is one step below assembly language. Rather than using binary instructions, it uses human- readable symbols (mnemonics) such as MOV, ADD, and SUB, making it easier to grasp but still tightly linked to machine hardware. An assembler is required to translate assembly language into machine code. It gives programmers more control over the hardware, but it necessitates in-depth familiarity with the design of computers. Page 12  WEEK 1: Module 1 Home About us Startegy Contact High-Level Languages Humans can grasp and develop high-level programming languages (like Python, Java, and C++) far more easily. These languages abstract away the intricacies of hardware and employ syntax that is more akin to plain language. For instance, print("Hello, World!") is a straightforward command in Python that generates a message; this is significantly more user-friendly than composing the same command in machine code or assembly. To convert the code from these languages into a format that can be read by machines, a compiler or interpreter is needed. High-level languages are more adaptable and portable, enabling the same code to operate with little change on several machine types.

It typically includes: Introduction A code editor for writing code. to IDE and A compiler or interpreter to run the code. Debugging tools to find and fix errors. Additional features like syntax highlighting, code Compilers completion, and version control integration.

Compilers translate high-level code generated by programmers into intermediate or machine code that can be run by computers. Code such as int x = 5; is translated, for instance, into CPU- understood computer instructions by a C++ compiler. There are various steps involved in compilation, such as: Lexical analysis to break the code into tokens. Syntax analysis to check for grammatical correctness. Code generation to produce machine code. NOTE: The compiler reports errors in the code and provides feedback, helping developers fix issues before running the program.
