COMPUTER PROGRAMMING
PROGRAMMING is telling a computer how to do certain things by giving it instructions. These instructions are
called programs. A person who writes instructions is a computer programmer. These instructions come in different
languages; they are called programming languages. Sometimes programmers use special software which helps
them to make programs, such as Integrated Development Environment , and sometimes they use simpler
software, called a text editor, which only gives them a place to type.
COMPILER: A program is a set of instructions for the computer to follow. Making these instructions in "computer
form" would be tedious and difficult, so instructions are written in a language similar to English, which has to be
turned into "computer form" instructions so the computer can follow them. A compiler is what we call the translator
from the half-English language to the computer language. Some languages, called interpreted languages, use
interpreters instead of compilers.
EXECUTABLES: Once a program has been compiled, the instructions in " machine form" are written into a file
that contains a series of numbers that the computer can understand. These files are generally called
"executables". These machine-instructions will be loaded into the computer's memory so that the CPU can run
them when the executable is opened. In the event that data is not transferred correctly, it can result in data loss.
VARIABLES: A variable a piece of the program that can be changed. Variables can include information added by
the user, or answers that are found as a result of a calculation .

Inside the Visual Basic Language: The language you write and speak has structure: for example, a book has
chapters with paragraphs that contain sentences consisting of words. Programs written in Visual Basic also have a
structure: modules are like chapters, procedures are like paragraphs, and lines of code are like sentences.
When you speak or write, you use different categories of words, such as nouns or verbs. Each category is used
according to a defined set of rules. In many ways, Visual Basic is much like the language that you use every day.
Visual Basic also has rules that define how categories of words, known as programming elements, are used to
write programs.
