Problem Design Tools in C

.

 A computer is simple hardware that cannot do anything without software. The software gives life to hardware or device. It is possible to solve problem using computer by writing appropriate programs in different high level language. If our instruction or program is wrong computer doesn't give right result thus before writing program we should follow the steps.

  1. Problem Analysis
  2. Algorithm Development
  3. Flowchart Development
  4. Coding
  5. Computation and Execution
  6. Debugging and Testing
  7. Documentation

1. Problem Analysis :

Problem analysis is a process to analyze the problem that will be solved with a computer program before solving the problem. It should be analyzed and understood clearly about solution and identification of input, process and output.

2. Algorithm Development :

An algorithm is simple English language step by step description of the method to solve a problem. It manage sequence of steps of problem.
Example : Write a algorithm to calculate simple interest when p, t and r is given.
Step 1 : Start
Step 2 : Declare variable p, t, r and si
Step 3 : Enter values of p, t and r
Step 4 : Calculate, Si = (p*t*r)/100
Step 5 : Display Si
Step 6 : Stop

3. Flowchart Development :

Flow chart is the graphical representation of an algorithm that uses boxes of different shapes of denote different types of task.

Example : Draw a flowchart to calculate simple interest when p, t and r given.


4. Coding :

Coding is the process of transforming the program logic design into computer programming language format. This stage translate the program logic design into computer instruction using like C, C++ & java etc.
Example : Write a simple program to calculate simple interest when p, t and r is given.
#Include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
    void main()
        {float p, t, r, si=0;
                clrscr();
            printf("Enter value of p, t & r");
            scanf("%d%d%d",&p,&t,&r);
                si = (p*t*r)/100%;
            printf("Simple interest =%d",si);
                   getch();
                        }

5. Compilation and Exception :

The process of changing high level language code into machine level language is known as compilation. If is done by compiler & interpreter. It also find the error in syntax if error is present compilation is not successful.

6. Debugging and Testing :

Debugging and testing is the process of detecting and correcting syntax error present in coding.

7. Documentation :

Program document is description of program details steps with starting phase to final phase of software development. It keep all information of sequencing of software development.

Define LAN and WAN

 . Local Area Network (LAN)  A LAN is a network that is used for communicating among computer devices, usually within an office building or home.   LAN’s enable the sharing of resources such as files or hardware devices that may be needed by multiple users • • Is limited in size, typically spanning a few hundred meters, and no more than a mile.  Is fast, with speeds from 10 Mbps to 10 Gbps.  Requires little wiring, typically a single cable connecting to each device.  Has lower cost compared to MAN’s or WAN’s.  LAN’s can be either wired or wireless. Twisted pair, coax or fiber optic cable can be used in wired LAN’s. Advantages of LAN :    The data is transferred at an extremely faster rate in local Area Network.  Local area network (LAN) provides higher security. Disadvantages of LAN :   Initial cost of installing local area network is quite high.  Unauthorized user can access critical data of an organization in case LAN ad...

Digital signal and wave form

 . Digital Signal: A digital signal is a representation of information using discrete values, typically in binary code (0's and 1's). They have distinct levels or states, allowing for precise representation of data. Commonly used in digital communication, computers and electronic devices for transmitting and processing information. Digital signals are less susceptible to noise during transmission, making them reliable. Example: Binary-coded messages, digital audio data transmitted over the internet are all examples of digital signals. Digital Waveform: Digital waveform consist of voltage levels that are changing back and forth between the HIGH and LOW level as states. A waveform, on the other hand, is a graphical representation of a signal's amplitude as it varies with time. It shows how the amplitude of the signal changes over a specific period. Waveforms can be associated with both analog and digital signals. It used in signal processing, audio analysis and the study of e...
