definition
1.1 What is programme?
• Programme refers to a series of organize instruction that directs the
computer to do something for us with the help of programming
language.
1.2 What is a programming language?
• A Programming Language is a set of rules that provides a way of telling
the computer what operation to perform (according to Capron and
Johnson,2004)

1.3 What programming languages are available?
These programming languages are generally divided into five levels or
generations.The following are the descriptions of each level of programming
language:-
Level of language /
Descriptions
Generations
Computer understands only binary
Machine Language number-strings of 0 and 1.
( First generation ) Programs that are written in these 0 and
1 represent the “on” and “off”.
This programming language is considered
Assembly Language very low level.
( Second Generation) This language use mnemonic codes such
as: A for add, C for compare, MP for
multiply.

This language is closer to human language compare
to the machine language.
High-Level Language
(Third Generation) designed to be easier for a human to understand
3GL Examples: VISUAL BASIC, ALGOL 58, 60 and 68,
COBOL, FORTRAN IV, ADA and C++.
This programming language is an improvement of
high-level language.
Very High-Level Language
Designed to reduce programming effort
( Fourth Generation or 4GL)
Examples: SHEERPOWER, OpenEdge ABL and
Informix-4GL
This language is similar to spoken or written English
Language.
Natural Language The natural language translates human instructions
(Fifth Generation ) into code.
Examples: PROLOG, MERCURY and OPS5.

• 1. Problem Analysis
• What is problem analysis?
• The programmer need to identify and analyst the problem before
developing a programme. (Example: interview the client to get
information of problems).
• 2. Program Design
• Before a programme is developed it has to be design using algorithm. An
algorithm is a set of steps that is able to solve a problem. It can be
expressed in many ways such as Pseudo code and Flowcharts.

Program development life cycle
• 2.1 Pseudo code
• A pseudo code is a mixture of Computer and English language, used for
planning program logic.
• Example : The following pseudocode is to input (Key-in) two marks
(math & Science) and output (display) the total mark.
– BEGIN ;
– INPUT math mark
– INPUT science mark
– Total = math mark + science mark
– DISPLAY Total;
– End ;

Program development life cycle
• 3. Coding
• Coding is to translate the logic from the flowchart or pseudo code into
code
• 4. Testing and Debugging
• Testing is to find error of the programme, the process of finding error is
debugging.
• 5. Documentation
• Documentation is important when programming. The document helps a
programmer to update and upgrade the programme. A document
consists of problem analysis, pseudo code, flowcharts, code, user manual,
a clear layout of the input and output records about the programme.

• 4.0 Getting started with just BASIC v1.01
• Before we start to write a programme using Just Basic, we need to know
the basic elements, such as :-
• i. print – an instruction for the computer to display information for
the user.
• ii. Input - an instruction for the computer to get information from the
• user.
• iii. Notice one special thing about our string variable name. It ends
with a $ (dollar sign). In BASIC, when you want to store characters in a
variable, you end the variable name with a $.
