We use these so people can repeat the same action in the same manner
Algorithms
Describes algorithms in a more robust, mathematical sense then writing them step-by-step
Pseudocode
When counting in any number system. We always start with this number.
0
Binary to Decimal
11100101
229
The mechanical components of a computer can be defined into on of these categories
Hardware and Software
This is the most common algorithm we come in contact with.
Recipe
These 3 things need to be defined when writing Pseudocode.
Input, Output, and Assumptions
This system can have a total of ten digits in any number place. What are the ten digits?
0 - 9
Hexadecimal to Binary
0xED56
1110110101010110
The CPU stands for this. It is the brain of the computer.
Central Processing Unit
In Computer Science we use Algorithms to achieve this. Which also means, "always behaves in the same way"
consistency
We use these symbols to represent variables
< and >
Carrots
This number system can mean yes or no
Binary or Base 2
Decimal to Binary
43
101011
Define this 3 acronyms.
RAM
USB
CD
Random Access Memory
Universal Serial Bus
Compact Disk
This is a great way to visualize a Algorithm.
A. Pseudocode
B. A Flowchart
C. Line Chart
D. Data Table
B. Flowchart
We can use this conditional for comparing two things.
We can either complete the first task or the second depending on what we are comparing.
If/Else
This number system is use to save space.
Hexadecimal or Base 16
Decimal to Hex
42,001
0xA411
There are this many bytes in 8 nibbles.
4 bytes
These are the 5 qualities of Algorithm.
Finite, executable, conditional, terminating, and clear
We can use this conditional when we need to complete a task a specific number of times.
For loop
We have to be able to count to this number in all 3 number systems.
15
Hex to Decimal
FF08
65,288
Speed, Age, and Security should be taken into consideration when comparing these 2 things.
32-Bit and 64-Bit computer
