Steps in Program Development
3
Define the problem
Outline the solution
Develop the outline into an algorithm
Test the algorithm for correctness
Code the algorithm into a programming
language
Run the program on computer
Document and maintain the program
FUNDAMENTALS OF
PROGRAMMING
4
Algorithms
Defining the problem
First step is to introduce method of
analyzing a problem and
developing a solution
Second develop simple algorithms
using the sequence control
structure
Third introduce methods of
manually checking the developed
solution
Pseudocode
5
Statements are written in simple English.
Each instruction is written on a separate line.
Keywords and indentation are used to signify particular
control structures.
Each set of instructions is written from top to bottom with
only 1 entry and 1 exit.
Groups of statements may be formed into modules and
that group can be given a name

gas_n_go_option
READ leaded_gas_price, unleaded_gas_price, federal_gas_tax_leaded,

9 Solution Algorithm (Processing Logic)
IF leaded_gas_option is Y THEN
total_federal_gas_tax = federal_gas_tax_leaded *
number_of_gallons_purchased
ELSE
total_federal_gas_tax = federal_gas_tax_unleaded *
number_of_gallons_purchased
ENDIF
IF leaded_gas_option is Y THEN
total_gas_charges_no_tax = leaded_gas_price *
number_of_gallons_purchase
ELSE
total_gas_charges_no_tax = unleaded_gas_price *
number_of_gallons_purchased
ENDIF
total_gas_charges = (gas_charges_no_tax * state_sales_tax) +
total_federal_gas_tax
IF customer_pumps_gas = Y THEN
total_service_charges = 0
ELSE
IF attendant_pumps_gas = Y
AND gas_n_go_option = Y THEN
total_service_charges = gas_n_go_charge
ELSE
total_service_charges = full_service_charge
ENDIF
ENDIF
