Debug: The attempt to find and fix errors in
computer programs. 15. Computer science: The science of creating artifacts and solving problems using the help of a computer. 16. Algorithm: An ordered set of instructions that are used to carry out a task. 17. Flowchart: A diagram that represents an algorithm, work flow, or process 18. Incremental approach: An approach to programming where the programmer adds and tests code in small chunks at a time. 19. End user: A representative consumer for whom a hardware or software product is designed. 6. User interface:The visual part of a computer app through which an end user interacts with the computing device or software. 20. View layer: The layer of an app that the user sees and interacts with. 21. 22. Controller layer: The layer of an app that contains the program that tells the app how to behave. 23. 24. Event: An action or occurrence that happens during runtime that will trigger a response or behavior by the software. 25. 26. Event handler: A block of code that is triggered when a certain event happens.
27. Conditional statement: A command that performs
different actions depending on whether a condition is true or false.
28. Boolean logic: A form of mathematics in which an
expression is reduced to either True or False.
29. Bug: A flaw in program that causes the program to
