- 6. Introduction to Programming Programming isthe process of designing, coding, testing, and maintaining software. It involves writing code that computers can understand and execute to perform specific tasks. Instructor: Nimra Mughal
- 7. Introducing Programming 1 Whatis Programming? The process of creating software, applications, and systems by writing instructions for a computer 2 The Purpose of Programming Allows us to automate manual tasks, solve complex problems, and create innovative solutions 3 Benefits of Programming Learning to program can enhance critical thinking, problem- solving skills, and future job opportunities
- 8. What is a Program? A program is a set of instructions that tell a computer what to do. It's like a recipe that tells a chef how to create a dish. Without a program, a computer would just be a useless piece of hardware.
- 9. Defining "Program" The Languageof Programs The building blocks of programs are written in programming languages like Python, C++, and Java. The Role of Software Development Software development is the process of designing, coding, testing, and maintaining software programs. The Functions of Programs Programs can handle data processing, create user interfaces, automate routine tasks and more.
- 10. What is Programming? 1Process 🔄 Programming involves writing instructions that can automate tasks and processes on a computer. 2 Problem-Solving 💡 Programmers build systems and solve real- world problems, such as developing applications that run on mobile devices or creating algorithms that can identify patterns in large data sets. 3 Creativity Developing software requires creativity, as programmers use their skills and expertise to design user interfaces, write efficient code, and improve performance.
- 11. What is Language? CommunicationTool Language is a communication tool that allows us to express our thoughts, ideas, and feelings. Programming languages are similar in that they allow us to communicate with computers. Code-Based Programming languages are made up of a set of instructions or commands that are written in code. This code tells the computer what to do and how to do it. Machine Compatible Computers can't understand human language, so programming languages provide a way for us to communicate with machines. Programming languages are designed to be compatible with the way that computers process information.
- 12. Programming Languages 1 Low-Level Languages Thefirst generation of programming languages are machine-dependent, consisting of binary code that represent simple instructions. 2 Low-Level Languages The Second Generation language is Assembly language programming that uses mnemonics, which are symbols that represent machine code instructions. 3 High-Level Languages The ThirdGeneration of programming languages High-level language programming that use source code that is easier for humans to read and write, and is then translated into machine code by a compiler or interpreter
- 13. Generations of ProgrammingLanguages First Generation Machine language programming uses binary code, which is the language that computers used to understand. Second Generation Assembly language programming uses mnemonics, which are symbols that represent machine code instructions. Third Generation High-level language programming uses source code that is easier for humans to read and write, and is then translated into machine code by a compiler or interpreter.
- 14. Types of ProgrammingLanguages Machine Language 🤖 It is the first generation of programming language that uses binary code instructions for computer hardware to understand. Assembly Language 📝 It is the second generation of programming language that closely resembles the machine language in mnemonics, which are English-like abbreviations and symbols representing sets of machine language instructions. High-Level Language 🧠 It is the third and the most popular generation of programming language that is easier to read and write for programmers, using English-like statements, functions and expressions, and needs a language translator to convert it into machine code.

- 18. Language Translators: Functionand Types 1 Compilers 📝 Converts high-level language source code written by a programmer into machine code or binary code executable files. 2 Assembler 🏭 This translator converts assembly language code into binary code. 3 Interpreters 🔍 Interprets high-level language source code line-by- line, and executes the program step-by-step, converting code to machine code.
- 19. C++: Syntax andSemantics 1 Library 📚 C++ includes a standard library of functions, pre- defined classes, and data types that developers can use to write their programs. 2 Object-Oriented ✨ C++ is an object-oriented programming language, which means it uses classes and objects to inherit attributes and functionality of existing objects and to create new ones. 3 Syntax 🤔 C++ uses a syntax that is closely related to the C language, with similar features, such as curly braces, semicolons, and data types.
- 20. Integrated Development Environments(IDEs) for C++ Visual Studio A feature-rich and robust IDE developed by Microsoft with several built-in tools, such as a debugger, code editor, and GUI designer. CodeBlocks A popular and lightweight IDE that supports multiple programming languages, including C++, with an intuitive interface and many customization options. Dev C++ A free and open-source IDE, mainly used for programming in C++, with an easy-to-use interface and a powerful compiler.
