Programming Concepts
Programming is built on 3 main concepts

These concepts are grouped together to find solutions.

Sequential Conditional Loops

Statements are Selective statement(s) are executed depending One or more statements are repeated
executed one after on meeting certain criteria. till a test condition is met or whilst a
another according to test condition is TRUE.
their order. Purpose: To allow different paths through a
program depending on meeting certain criteria. Purpose: To repeat same or similar
code a number of times, which allows
for shorter code.

Conditional statement Code

It is statement which carries two possible IF [ ] Then

outcomes.
Depends on criteria
ELSE
Using one of the most used conditional statements
( IF Statements )
ENDIF
Conditional statement
First key is to know how to construct the IF
statement criteria which is called the Condition

IF [ Weather is cold? ] THEN

ELSE

ENDIF
Conditional statement
How to develop the Condition for computer logic
Computer Only understands numbers by comparison

IF [ Temperature <= 10 ] THEN

Using Logical signs
<,
>,
=,
>=,
<=, ELSE
<>

ENDIF

Write a program that take from user his age and
Print weather he is adult or not

Quick question
Create a program that ask the user to enter number and
show if it is zero or not.

 Screen
Quick question
Design a program that take from the user his height in
CM an decide whether he is “Tall” Or “Short”
Tall users are more than 175 cm.
Code
 Screen
Quick question
-Extend the previous program as if the user considered
Tall the show his height in meters ( 100cm: 1Meter) ,and if the
user is considered Short the show his height in inches( 1 inch:
2.54 cm).
Code
 Logic statement
Its tool to combine two statements in one condition

AND OR
True Only if the two statements are true ,False True Only if the two statements are true or either
otherwise of them, False otherwise.

IF [ height >175 AND age>=18 ] THEN IF [ Temperature <=175 OR age>=18 ] THEN

ELSE ELSE

Quick question
Create program to enter quiz grade as if grade is between 70 to
100 then show “Great” as a message otherwise, show “need to
study”

Quick question
Design a program that inputs a number and prints “Correct
range” if the number is between 1 and 20 (inclusive) or between
-1 and -20 (exclusive), otherwise the program outputs “Wrong
range”.

Quick question
Design program that show “You’re bluffing “in case user entered
his age less than 0 also if he entered age more than 100,
otherwise show “you are good”.

Code
Validation
It is a process of filtering data that user control from insensible data

To prevent program from working or storing incorrect values

 Screen
Quick question
Create program for User that should enter age
make sure that the maximum age entered by user is less than
100 . if not less than 100 print Error message.

Quick question
Design a pseudocode that will read the side length of a square and displays its perimeter and
area.
Note that
The perimeter = 4*side
The area = side * side
Display an error message if the side length is negative.

Code
 Screen
Quick question
Design an algorithm that inputs a sphere's radius from the user and the
program calculates the surface area and then outputs the result.
Note that the surface area = 4*π*radius2 (π = 3.14)
Validate the inputs.

Quick question
Create program that convert from minutes to hours, and print
the time in hours
Validate the inputs.

Test
Design a program that inputs a binary digit from the user. The program
should output ON and OFF in case the user entered 1 and 0 respectively.
In case the user entered any other value than 1 or 0, the
program must display an error message.
