Six steps in understanding a program

1. Understand the program – first, before creating the program, we need to understand the program so that we can get the possible output that we need. Thinking its possible output will helps us to create the whole step and process of the program. Then, analyze the program of what will you do in your body so that you can sequence the things that you need to do.
2. Plan the logic – there are two ways in planning its logic. One is by writing pseudo code and second is by making flowchart. Those tools will help us in better understanding and good way of making a program. Lets define first the two tools;

Pseudo code - s a compact and informal high-level description of a computer programming algorithm that uses the structural conventions of some programming language, but typically omits details that are not essential for the understanding of the algorithm, such as subroutines, variable declarations and system-specific code. The programming language is augmented with natural language descriptions of the details, where convenient, or with compact mathematical notation. (source - wikipedia.com)

Flowchart - is a schematic representation of an algorithm or a process, or the step-by-step solution of a problem, using suitably annotated geometric figures connected by flow lines for the purpose of designing or documenting a process or program. (source - wikipedia.com)

3. Code the program- it is important for us to code the program because in this process, debugging, trouble shooting the program and maintaining the source code of programming. It will also test the code of the program if it is accurate to the language that we are using.
4. Translate the program into machine language – in this process the compiler will translate your code. The compiler the one who will do the task. The compiler will undergo a process through translating the program to a machine language.
5. Test the program – in testing the program the compiler will sequentially check every line in your program. Then, it will tell if there is an error in your program. In this process, we will know if our program has met the output that we need.
6. Put the program into production – lastly, in this process your program will be check. It will be put into production after checking it.

"The power of new technology;NETWORKING"

NETWORKING




Networking change many lives in the entire world . Networking connect devices that also people. It is used to transfer data and forum from one person to another. Before,networking was being connected through cables and wires. However,nowadays it is wireless. Thus, it connect the people and computers widely in the universe. Networks are built with a mix of computer hardware and computer software.


Networking helps people because it provides wide connection and helps some of our problems. It also heps in different field in lives. In students it helps to make assignments and projects. It also helps in business. It serves as their way of communicating and transacting their business .They may be able to check their stocks and and communicate with their clients through networking. In general networking have many advantageous effect for those people who used computers wisely. If their is a positive way of using networking their are also way disadvantageous way of networking. The only thing is that it has cost, it needs money to access such thing. Well, if we want to be more productive in using computers we must connect it.In networking also we may get viruses. The point their is that, their are also some people who abuse this.

Learning networking needs logical and critical thinking. Who want to learn must know its basic feature; must read and analyzed books or references regarding networking. Anybody who will study networking will have difficulty in software and hardware because it has many elements. Then all of its function must perform must perform well and cooperate. The easiest way to understand is to break its components and study how thus it works. Another way of analyzing it is through dividing its layers because it is easy to understand things in concrete way.

The local area network

The local area network commonly known as LAN. It is group of computers connected associatively . It is used in internet cafe and company computers that interconnected with. The most commonly known as LAN is the Ethernet token ring FDDI network.

The wide area network

The wide area network or WANS is the networking broadly. It is the connection of LAN's, so that users from another connection can also with the another local connection. It is commonly use in branches of company so they may able to communicate from other local area network.

Those are the area network connection that area commonly and widely used by everybody.

One important word in internet that we must know is the protocol because it control the connection of computers in transmitting data and resources. In simplest form , it can be defined as the rules governing communication of two computers. Protocol is the prerequisite of all network. Without protocol their is no connection in network. But their are many protocols that are used, examples are internet protocol and user data gram protocol and etc.

In general, networking provides a huge help in our community. We must consider networking as the start of evolution of different knowledge in this new generation and to the up coming events in the future. Without this their is no networking administartion insist in Xavier University, their will be a stagard in documenting , their will be no communication in other countries specially to our family who in abroad. I just want to share to everyone that we must not abuse using network so that it will be more accurate, faster and comfortable to use networking.NETWORKING REALLY HELPS AND CONTRIBUTES.
