A
- Analysis
- Design
- Coding
- Testing
2
Q
State the three parts of analysis
A

3
Q
Describe what is meant by abstraction
A
- Simplifying the problem
- Selecting elements required
- Filtering out irrelevant characteristics from those elements
4
Q
State the three parts of the design stage
A
- Develop an algorithm to solve the problem using:
- Structure diagrams
- Flowcharts
- Pseudocode
5
Q
State what is mean by coding
A
Writing program code and iterative testing to solve the problem.
6
Q
State what is mean by testing
A
