UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming6 Notes This course is NOT about the language per se, it is about problem solving, analytical skills and to apply C to solve problems. Write C program in Linux environment. Do early reading. Do not hesitate to ask during lecture sessions.

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming7 Outline Computer Fundamentals Computer organization and hardware Computer software Programming Languages Machine language Assembly language High-level language Algorithm : pseudo code and flowchart Control Structures Simple C Program

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming8 Computer Fundamentals Computer system is divided into hardware and software. Hardware refers to physical components of computer which are: Main Memory Central Processing Unit (CPU)‏ Input Device Output Device Secondary Memory Device

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming13 Central Processing Unit (CPU)‏ CPU is the computer’s administrator and is responsible for supervising the operation of the other sections Consists of two functional units; control unit and arithmetic-logic unit (ALU)‏ Control unit supervises all activities of the computer system ALU performs basic arithmetic operations and comparison operations

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming14 Main Memory keeps information from the input unit also keeps processed information until it can be placed on output devices all programs must be loaded into main memory before they can be executed and all data must be brought into main memory before it can be manipulated.

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming15 Main Memory Main memory can be further classified into two types: Random Access Memory (RAM)‏ information in RAM will be lost when the computer is turned-off. Read Only Memory (ROM)‏ It has been set during manufacturing process. ROM usually contains instructions and information considered to be fundamental to the computer.

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming17 Secondary Memory Main memory is only used during processing following certain instructions Permanent information is NOT stored in main memory but is stored in secondary memory E.g. program file, data file, etc E.g. hard disk, diskette, CD

Figure 1.5 Secondary Storage Media UniMAP Sem II – 09/10 EKT120: Computer Programming

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming19 Input/Output Devices Input devices - feed data and programs into computers E.g. keyboard, mouse, touch screen, scanners Output devices - display results produced by computer E.g. monitor, printer, speaker

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming20 Software As a complement to hardware, computer system needs software to solve problems. Software are classified into : System software Application software

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming21 Software System software : manages the computer and its peripheral devices (hardware) E.g. Operating system (OS)‏ Text editor Pre-processor Language translator Linker Loader

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming22 Software Application software : performs specific tasks There are two types: Program to solve specific problems Program written by user to solve specified problem E.g. word processor, desktop publishing software, spreadsheets, database, graphics, communication, programs perform specific tasks such as accounting, scientific, engineering, education, etc

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming23 Programming Languages Programming language is divided into three categories: Machine Language Assembly Language High-Level Language

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming24 Machine Language Language understood by the computer Bunch of 0’s and 1’s Program written in machine language can be executed without being translated Nevertheless, hard to learn because it is written in 0’s and 1’s Program is too long to solve simple problem Machine-dependant and not portable E.g

Figure 1.6 Relationship Between a Byte and a Bit UniMAP Sem II – 09/10 EKT120: Computer Programming

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming26 Assembly Language Strings of 0’s and 1’s are replaced into instructions which resemble English language to represent computer operation element Easier to understand and write E.g. LOAD rate MULThour STORwages

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming27 Assembly Language Nevertheless, needs language translator called Assembler to change Assembly Language to Machine Code for execution purpose still too long and not portable

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming28 High-Level Language Improves weaknesses in Machine Language and Assembly Language Portable Written in one instruction to carry out several instructions in machine level E.g. discount_price = price – discount; Must be changed to machine code before executed, needs compiler : a system software that translates source program to object program

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming29 Algorithms The solution to any computing problem involves executing series of actions in a specific order Pseudo code : artificial and informal language that helps programmers develop algorithms E.g. if student’s grade is greater than or equal to 50 Print “Pass” else Print “Fail”

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming30 Algorithms Flowchart: visual-form of an algorithm E.g. Process 2 Decision Data Process 1 Begin End

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming31 Algorithm-Basic symbols in a flowchart Start/End Process Input/Output Decision Flow direction Connector

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming32 Flowchart-(example)‏ Start read num1, num2 sum=num1+num2 print sum End

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming33 TRY THIS!!! Write a pseudo code, flowchart and program that calculates and prints the SUM of two integers A and B.

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming34 Pseudo code Begin Input A and B Calculate A + B Print result of SUM End Flowchart Begin Input A,B Calculate A + B Print SUM End

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming35 Control Structure All programs could be written in terms of three control structures: Sequence structure Selection structure Repetition structure

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming36 Sequence Structure Is a series of steps executed sequentially by default Read num1, num2 Calculate total=num1+num2 Print total Pseudo codeFlowchart Read num1, num2 total = num1+num2 print total

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming37 Selection Structure Used to choose among alternative courses of action C has three types: if, if.. else, and switch

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming38 The if Selection Structure “if” structure is a single-entry/single- exit structure true false grade >= 60 print “Pass” If student’s grade is greater than or equal to 60 Print “Pass”

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming39 The if..else Selection Structure Specifies an action to be performed both when the condition is true and when it is false truefalse print “Fail”print “Pass” grade >= 60 If student’s grade is greater than or equal to 60 Print “Pass” else Print “Fail”

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming40 Repetition Structure Specifies a block of one or more statements that are repeatedly executed until a condition is satisfied Three types : while, for, do-while

UniMAP Sem II – 09/10EKT120: Computer Programming41 The while Repetition Structure Programmer specifies an action is to be repeated while some conditions remain true product <= 1000 product = 2 * product true false While product is less than or equal 1000 calculate product=2 * product
