25. What Is Computer Programming?
Computer programming is the process
of designing and building an executable
computer program to accomplish a
specific computing result.

26. Purpose of Computer Programming?
The purpose of programming is to find
a sequence of instructions that will
automate the performance of a task
on a computer, often for solving a
given problem.
