Developing algorithms and writing programs

By the end of the course, the student will be able to comprehend and analyze a given problem. The student will first define the problem and express it in their own words, then identify possible solution approaches and select the most suitable one. They will design the problem's solution algorithm and corresponding flowchart, as well as simulate the algorithm to verify its logic. The student will test the algorithm with various data inputs to ensure proper functionality, explain how the algorithm works, and verify its loops and control structures. Finally, the student will derive code based on the flowchart by selecting an appropriate programming language, implement the code in a clear and understandable manner, and thoroughly test and debug the implementation.
