Answers
1. Coding is the process of writing instructions in a programming language
to create software, applications, or systems that computers can
execute. It involves translating human ideas into a language that
computers understand.
2. A programming language is a formal set of instructions and rules used to
communicate with a computer and develop programs. It provides syntax and
structure for coding. Example: Python, Java, C++, etc.
3. An algorithm is a step-by-step procedure or formula for solving a problem or
performing a task. It is a logical sequence of actions to achieve a specific goal.
Algorithm to find the sum of two numbers:
Start
Input two numbers (A and B)
Add the numbers: Sum = A + B
Output the Sum
Stop
4. Algorithm:
Start
Input Cost Price (CP) and Selling Price (SP)
If SP > CP, calculate Profit = SP - CP
If CP > SP, calculate Loss = CP - SP
Output Profit or Loss
Stop
5.
6. Steps for flowchart:
Start
Input CP and SP
Decision (Is SP > CP?)
a. If Yes: Calculate Profit = SP - CP, then Output Profit
b. If No: Calculate Loss = CP - SP, then Output Loss
Stop
7. Clarity: Makes the logic of a process clear.
Problem-solving: Simplifies understanding and debugging.
Communication: Helps communicate ideas to team members.
Documentation: Useful for maintaining and updating systems.
8. Integer (int): Stores whole numbers.
Example: int age = 25;
Float (float): Stores decimal numbers.
Example: float price = 99.99;
Character (char): Stores a single character.
Example: char grade = 'A';
String (string): Stores sequences of characters.
Example: string name = "Alice";
Boolean (bool): Stores true or false values.
Example: bool is Happy = true;
