Step of programming
There are five steps in preparing a computer programmed which are also called ABCDE of Programming.
· ANALYSIS:
In this step the system analyst tries to become familiar with the problem. He has to study the problem and prepare some notes upon that problem. He also notes that what is given, what is required and what computer will can do.
· BLOCKING:
In this step the programmer converts the analyst report to a series of steps through which the computer will give the required result. The steps are commonly known as Algorithm. There are different ways to write those detailed sequential steps. The most common method used is flow charting. A flow chart is symbolic representation of flow of a programmed.
· CODING:
In this step the programmer writes the programme in any computer language. This step is known as coding. After this programme is fed into the computer and is compiled with the help of a given compiler.
· DEBUGGING:
Debugging is a step in which a programmer corrects a syntax error which may come after the compilation.
· TESTING:
Testing is a step where the programmer is finally testing the programme for execution (there may be any logical mistake which compiler cannot trace).
· EXECUTION:
In this step we send the programme for execution where company’s data will be fed and process.
