Logic structure where instructions are executed in order
What is sequencing?
Where you change the information is called this
What is a Parameter?
Symbols that imply a comparison
What are operators?
It is a loop that will continue until a particular condition is met
What is iteration?
What is the Big-O Notation?
These can be expressed using various symbols
What is a flow chart.
Annotations in the code that is not executed
What are comments?
Uses these to tell a computer how to select a step or to tell the sequence that should be executed
What is if...then statements?
This means to repeat a task of instruction until the number is done
What is a For Loop?
This searches in order and often has a linear relationship between work and list growth
What is a sequential search?
A process or set of rules to be followed in calculations
What is an algorithm?
Collection of steps in an algorithm that can be reused without restating the details
What is a procedure?
These are if statements that use operators
What are statements with Comparisons?
This is executed when the condition is met and is checked at the beginning of it
What is a WHILE loop?
This is a logarithmic relationship and wont work if the list isn't in order.
What is a Binary Search?
Program instructions that are performed one at a time in order
What is sequential execution?
This symbol is used in selection blocks and represents a condition.
What are hexagons?
This only executes if a specific condition is met
What is If statement? What is If....then statement?
What is Moore's Law?
This can be comprised of transistors, microchips, and motherboards
What is a Logic Gate?
Can emerge when data is transformed using computational logic structures
What is a flow pattern?
This happens during selection if the condition occurs
What is branching?
This stipulates what happens when a condition is not met
What is and IF ELSE statement?
This is executed when the condition is false and stops when the condition is true.
What is a Repeat Until loop?
This is a method for deriving an approximate solution. A rule of thumb.
What is Heuristics?
