Programming[1]
Introduction to programming[edit]
Programming is the issuing of instructions to a computer. You must learn how to issue instructions to a computer.
- What is a programming language?
- High level languages
- Low level languages
- Translating high-level code to low-level code
- Compiler
Basic understanding[edit]
Basic (primitive) data types[edit]
In computer science and computer programming, a data type or simply type is a classification of data which tells the compiler or interpreter how the programmer intends to use the data. Most programming languages support various types of data, for example: real, integer or Boolean.[2]
Common data structures[edit]
Control Flow[edit]
In computer science, control flow (or flow of control) is the order in which individual statements, instructions or function calls of an imperative program are executed or evaluated. [3]
