Programming Steps
1. Write the algorithm
2. Draw the flowchart
3. Implement the program

Step 1. Algorithm
Steps that are written in English in order to
solve a problem
Cannot be understood by computers but
understood by programmers

Step 2. Flowchart
Pictorial data of a solution to a problem
Used to check flow of information from start
to end
Use standard symbols

Examples
Adding two numbers
Printing a name

Exercise
Write an algorithm to read the marks of a
student and then calculate the sum and
average
Convert the algorithm to flowchart

Step 3. Implementation
Convert the flowchart to code

Creating program in Visual C++


1. Start > Microsoft Visual Studio 2010
2. Select Visual C++ Development setting and
choose Start Visual Studio
3. Click on New Project
4. Select Win32 Console Application
5. Provide File and choose path
6. Click Finish

Type this on your stations


#include stdafx.h
#include<iostream>
#include<conio.h>

Preprocessor Area

using namespace std;

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv [])


Data Type
Beginning of function body
{
cout<<Hello World!;
getch();
main function body
return 0;
}
End of function body

Program Execution
Compile the program
Run the program

On your own, create a code to have


the output shown below

The file must be named ICT exercise and must be put in a folder named Practice on the

using namespace std;


int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv [])
{
int A;
cout<<Enter the input: ;
cin>>A;
cout<<The number is <<A;
getch();
return 0;
}

Adding two numbers using algorithm and
flowchart

Declaration of Variables
Integer
Float
Character

A variable is a symbol usually a letter used to represent a certain


value or quantity

Integer
Whole numbers including zero and negative
numbers
To declare an integer, use the keyword int
Example:
int A;
int A, B, C;

Float
Involves numbers with decimal parts
Use the keyword float for declaration
Example:
float X;
float Y, Z, W;

Character
Variables used to store alphabetical letters
To declare a character, use the keyword char
Example:
char M
char N, O, Y;

Syntax for Declaring Variable


datatype variable_name;
datatype variable1, variable2, variable3;

Rules for Variable Names


Variables may contain letters (A-Z, a-z), digits
(0-9), and underscores (_)
First letter can only be a letter or underscore
Variables cannot be a reserved word
C is case sensitive
auto
short
continue
switch
goto
volatile
union

const
struct
else
void
register
do
while

double
unsigned
for
case
sizeof
extern

float
break
long
default
typedef
return

int
if
signed
enum
char
static

Initializing a Variable
Giving a variable an initial value
Example:
int A=5;
int D, E, F=7, G;

Reading the Input, Writing the Output


>>
<<

extracts data from an input stream


inserts data into output stream

cin>>a;

inputs data into a

cout<<a; outputs the value of a

Writing Program Codes


Read the power (W) and current (I) of an
electrical line. Calculate the voltage (V) and
resistance (R) using the formula:
Voltage=Power/Current
Resistance= Voltage/Current
Print the voltage and resistance with proper
units.
