Characteristics of Programming
Advantages of algorithms
disadvantages of algorithms
are discussed

Examples are discussed within the lecture.

Example #1
Write an algorithm that add two numbers by the user?
Step 1: Start
Step 2: Declare variables num1,num2 and sum.
Step 3: Read the values of num1,num2 and sum.
Step 4: Add num1 and num2 and assign it to sum.
Step 5: Sum = num1+num2.
Step 6: Print sum.
Step 7: Stop.

Example # 2
Write an algorithm to check the greatest of 10 numbers?
Step 1: Start
Step 2: Declare variables a and b.
Step 3: Read the values of a and b.
Step 4: If a greater than b
Step 5: Print a is greatest.
Step 6: Else
Step 7: Print b is greatest.
Step 8: Stop.
