Step-by-step algorithm of program:

1. Input necessary parameters:


 coordinates of the joints of the member
 the cross-sectional area
 length of the member
 principal moment of inertias
 modulus of elasticity
 rotation matrix
2. The program will solve for the member stiffness matrix of both member section.

3. The program will solve for the transformation matrix for both member sections
4. The program will solve for the transpose of the transformation matrix for both member
sections.
5. The program will solve for the global stiffness matrix for both member sections

6. From member stiffness matrix, the program will now solve for the whole structure stiffness
matrix

7. The program will compute for member end displacements and end forces, and support
reactions by the member code numbers.
