If using one variable in pseudocode is good, then using multiple variables is (probably better). Don’t add variables you don’t need. As it will make it more complex than necessary. Always ask yourself, what is this variable here for. Everything should be as simple as it can be, but not simpler. Albert Einstein To add…
Using variables is a way to greatly enhance what your code can do because it allows you to change a given value every time your code runs, or the code that would come out of this pseudocode, without you having to go back to the code to make changes. Defining a Variable To define a…
We’ve looked at Flowcharts as a way to visually show and describe the steps of an algorithm to solve a problem. It does a great job of that, yet there are two issues. The first is that some people are not visually inclined. They don’t care for the visuals, and feel it gets in the…
A network administrator, also known as a network admin, plays a critical role in managing and maintaining an organization’s computer network infrastructure. Their day-to-day activities can vary depending on: However, here are some common tasks and responsibilities that network administrators typically perform. Note, that some of these activities, such as user support, network monitoring, and…
Working with a flowchart can help you describe how you want to solve a problem, and as we’ve said before, it doesn’t even have to be a coding problem. This is the power of the flowchart. However, up until now, we’ve looked at flowcharts as individual components. We perform a series of steps. We make…
There are often several reasons why we might use, and or define a pre-defined process our self. First, it is that there is some code being provided by a third party. This could be a library you found online to help you out, something that the language provides for you, or even a vendor providing…
Often, when programming, we need to perform a series of steps multiple times. For example, think of all of the steps you need to do to walk. You have to lift your foot off the ground. You have to balance yourself on the one foot that is on the ground. You have to extend your…
A backend developer is a type of software developer who specializes in building and maintaining the server-side components of web and mobile applications. These components are responsible for the application’s functionality that users don’t directly see but are essential for its operation. With the rise of web apps, mobile apps, and Software as a Service…
