12. What is Computer Programming?
Planning or scheduling a sequence of steps for a computer to follow to perform a task.
Basically, telling a computer what to do and how to do it.
A program:
A sequence of steps to be performed by a computer.
Expressed in a computer language.
Now, apply programming to computers.
dr. Amal Khalifa, Fall 15

13. Computer Languages A set of used to construct a program.
Symbols (punctuation),
Special words or keywords (vocabulary),
And rules (grammar)
used to construct a program.
Relate computer languages back to natural languages. Students need to appreciate the similarities between the two. Yes, computer languages are somewhat more strict about punctuation and grammar. However, students need to get rid of their fear of the difficulties with the languages.
dr. Amal Khalifa, Fall 15

14. Evolution of Programming Languages
Languages differ in
Size (or complexity)
Readability
Expressivity (or writability)
"Level"
closeness to instructions for the CPU
dr. Amal Khalifa, Fall 15

15. High-Level Languages Closer to natural language
Each step maps to several machine language instructions
Compiler: A program that translates a program written in a high-level language into the equivalent machine language.
dr. Amal Khalifa, Fall 15

16. Console application Saved in File ClassName.cs using directive
System namespace
main??
Keywords
case sensitive
Braces
Strings
A using directive tells the compiler where to look for a predefined class that’s used in an app.
Predefined classes are organized under namespaces—named collections of related classes. Collectively, .NET’s namespaces are referred to as the .NET Framework Class Library.
The System namespace contains the predefined Console class and many other useful classes.
Console apps input and output text in a console window, which in Windows XP and Windows Vista is known as the Command Prompt.
@IF: C# is case sensitive—that is, uppercase and lowercase letters are distinct, so
A1 and a1 are different (but both valid) identifiers
@IF: A left brace {, begins the body of every class declaration. A corresponding
right brace }, must end each class declaration.
@IF: Class Console provides standard input/output capabilities that enable apps to read
and display text in the console window fromwhich the app executes. The Console.Write-
Line method displays a line of text in the console window
dr. Amal Khalifa, Fall 15

17. Example 1
comments
A class name is an identifier Series of letters, digits and ( _ ), cannot begin with a digit, and does not contain spaces.
@IF: Class Name Convention
By convention, all class names begin with a capital letter and capitalize the first letter of
each word they include (e.g., SampleClassName). This convention is known as upper camel
casing. A class name is an identifier—a series of characters consisting of letters, digits
and underscores ( _) that does not begin with a digit and does not contain spaces. Some
valid identifiers are Welcome1, identifier, _value and m_inputField1. The name
7button is not a valid identifier because it begins with a digit, and the name input field
is not a valid identifier because it contains a space.
dr. Amal Khalifa, Fall 15

18. Example2 Modify the code to display each word in a separate line
@IF: Displaying multiple lines with a single statement
Console.WriteLine( "Welcome \n to\n C# \nProgramming!" );
backslash (\)n: \n
Modify the code to display each word in a separate line
dr. Amal Khalifa, Fall 15

19. Example 3 format string  fixed text and format items. placeholder
@IF: Console.WriteLine( "{0}\n{1}", "Welcome to", "C# Programming!" );
calls method to display the app’s output. The method call specifies three arguments. When a method requires multiple arguments, the arguments are separated with commas (,)—this is known as a comma-separated list.
@IF: format string that may consist of fixed text and
format items.
Fixed text: is output by WriteLine
format items. Format items also may include optional formatting information
the format item {0} is a placeholder
for the first additional argument (because C# starts counting from 0), {1} is a placeholder
for the second, and so on. The format string in line 10 specifies that WriteLine
should output two arguments and that the first one should be followed by a newline character.
So this example substitutes "Welcome to" for the {0} and "C# Programming!" for
the {1}.
