What is Programming?
Programming is structured problem solving: define inputs, design logic, implement, test, and iterate.
This starter module focuses on a simple but practical workflow so learners can build intuition before advanced topics.
How Programming Solutions Are Built
Define
Clarify requirements and expected outputs before coding.
Design
Choose data structures and control flow to solve the problem.
Verify
Test normal and edge cases, then refactor for readability.
Real World Example
Task Scheduler Script
A developer builds a script to schedule and prioritize daily tasks.
Specification
Define task input format and expected sorted output.
Implementation
Write a priority-based sorting algorithm with clear functions.
Testing
Run cases for duplicate priorities and missing fields.
