Computational Thinking
The first step of computational thinking is:
Decomposition
Which step of computational thinking does this definition describe: Looking for similarities among and within problems.
Pattern Recognition
Binary numbers are counted in this base
2
The first step when conducting a binary search.
A set of steps used to complete a simple task.
The second step of computational thinking is:
Pattern Recognition
Which step of computational thinking does this definition describe:Developing a step-by-step solution to the problem, or the rules to follow to solve the problem.
Algorithms

The main difference of a linear search and a binary search is.
Linear searches have to check each target value.
This presentation is used when algorithms are collecting real world data such as traveling, social media networks, and patterns.
Graphs
In order to look for solutions to a problem, we must first ________ the problem.
Understand.
A way of solving problems or identifying opportunities when conventional thinking has failed.
Create problem solving.
