PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE (1)

The program development life cycle consists of five stages: analysis, design, coding, testing, and maintenance. In the analysis stage, the problem is clearly defined, while the design stage outlines how the program will be developed. The coding stage involves writing the program, followed by testing to ensure all components function as intended.

PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE.

- The program development life cycle is divided into five stages:


analysis, design, coding, testing and maintenance.
ANALYSIS.

Before any problem can be solved, it needs to be clearly defined and set out so
anyone working on the solution understands what is needed.
The analysis stage uses abstraction and decomposition tools to identify exactly
what is required from the program.
DESIGN

The program specification from the analysis stage is used to show to how the
program should be developed.
All the tasks that need to be completed, how each task is to be performed and
how the tasks work together is defined in this stage.
CODING

The program or set of programs is developed.


Each module of the program is written using a suitable programming language
and then tested to see if it works.
TESTING
The completed program or set of programs is run many times with different
sets of test data.
This ensures that all the tasks completed work together as specified in the
program design.
