Early days people use fingers for computing purpose.

As years go, the computing needs also grew. This leads to the

invention of calculators and computers.

The term computer is derived from the word compute. The word

compute means to calculate

Generation and Classification of

Computers

Generations of Computers (Cont)

First Generation Computers:

These computers were vacuum tube based machines.

They used magnetic drums for memory.

Input were fed into the computer using Punched cards

The size of these computers were very large and it produce

more heat.

They lacked in versatility and speed.

They were more expensive.

Figure . Vacuum tube

Generations of Computers (Cont)Second Generation Computers

Here the Transistor replaced the bulky vacuum tubes.

Transistors are smaller than vacuum tubes and have

higher operating speed.

Thus the size of the computer got reduced considerably.

Manufacturing cost was also very low.

Fig. Transistors


Third Generation Computers

These computers were based on Integrated Circuits (ICs) Technology.

A single IC has many transistors, registers and capacitors built on a

single thin slice of silicon.

So that the size of the computer got further reduced.

These Computers were small in size, low cost, large memory and

processing speed is very high.

Fig .IC CHIPS

Generations of Computers (Cont)Fourth Generation Computers

It uses large scale Integrated Circuits (LSIC) built on a single silicon

chip called microprocessors .

Later very large scale Integrated Circuits (VLSIC) replaced LSICs

These computers are called microcomputers.

Thus the size of the computer got reduced.

The personal computer (PC) are comes under the Fourth Generation.

Fig. Microprocessors


Fifth Generation Computer

The speed is extremely high in fifth generation computer.

The concept of Artificial intelligence has been introduced to

allow the computer to take its own decision.

It is still in a developmental stage .

Classification of Computer

NUMBER SYSTEM

Data Representation

•The data stored in the computer may be of different kinds, as follows:

•Numeric data (0, 1, 2, ... , 9)

•Alphabetic data (A, B, C, ... , Z)

•Alphanumeric data-Combination of any of the symbols-(A, B, C ..

Z),

(0,1..9),or special characters (+,-, Blank), etc.

•All kinds of data, be it alphabets, numbers, symbols, sound data or video

data, is represented in terms of 0s and 1s, in the computer.

•Each symbol is represented as a unique combination of 0s and 1s.

Number system• A number system in base r or radix r uses unique symbols for r digits. One or

more digits are combined to get a number.

• base of the number decides the valid digits that are used to make a number.

• In a number, the position of digit starts from right-hand side of the number.

•Rightmost digit has position 0, the next digit on its left has position 1, and so

on.

•The digits of a number have two kinds of values:

• Face value• Position value

•The face value of a digit is the digit located at that position.

•For example, in decimal number 52, face value at position 0 is 2 and face value

at position 1 is 5.

•The position value of a digit is (base Position). For example, in decimal

number 52, the position value of digit 2 is 10° and the position value of digit 5

is 101. Decimal numbers have a base of 10.

•The number is calculated as the sum of, face value * base position, of each of

the digits

•For decimal number 52, the number is 5*101 + 2*10° = 50 + 2 = 52

•In computers, we concerned with four kinds of number systems, as follows:

• Decimal Number System -Base 10

• Binary Number System -Base 2

• Octal Number System - Base 8

• Hexadecimal Number System -Base 16

Number SystemNumber Base B => B symbols

Base 16 (Hexa) : 0, 1,……9, A ,…, E, F

Base 10 (Decimal) : 0, 1, 2,……, 7, 8, 9

Base 8(Octal) : 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

Base 2 (Binary) : 0, 1

Number System (cont)

Number representation:

CHAPTER 4NEED FOR LOGICAL ANALYSIS AND

THINKING

NEED FOR LOGICAL ANALYSIS AND THINKING •Logical thinking is the process of understanding something; we put together

our judgment, reasoning, and other forms of thinking to reflect the reality of

knowledge.

•Logics and reasoning are also known as concepts of understanding something

logically.

•It is recognized as a structure of thinking and the analysis of the appearance

and development of something.

•Only through logical thinking, we can achieve the specific goals or targets.

•It is the advanced stage of understanding something, different thoughts may

apply on the same problem to get the specific task to be done.

•It is characterized by abstract, emotional, material, and analytical thinking.

•When finalizing the goal or target of something, we have put together our

judgment and reasoning, indirectly reflecting reality.

•Our brain is powerful in logical thinking, this enables us to scientifically

expose the essence of something in an abstract and logical way with our

consciousness.

•Logic is the basic form of the concept, judgment and reasoning. Logical

ways of thinking are mainly induction, deduction, analysis and synthesis, from

abstract to the concrete.

•Logic is also known as abstract thinking, a higher form of thinking. Its

characteristics are abstract concepts, judgment and reasoning as basic forms of

thinking, such as analysis, synthesis, generalization, and so on. Thereby, it helps

to expose the essence of the characteristics and laws of the things that we

observe.

•The same logic applies to in computer programming.

ALGORITHM

ALGORITHM •Algorithm is an ordered sequence of finite, well defined, unambiguous

instructions for completing a task.

•Algorithm is an English-like representation of the logic which is used to

solve the problem.

•It is a step-by-step procedure for solving a task or a problem.

•The steps must be ordered, unambiguous and finite in number.

•For accomplishing a particular task, different algorithms can be written.

•The different algorithms differ in their requirements of time and space.

•The programmer selects the best-suited algorithm for the given task to be

solved.

•Let's now look at two simple algorithms to find the greatest among three

numbers, as follows:

Algorithm to find the greatest among three numbers:

ALGORITHM 1

Step 1: Start

Step 2: Read the three numbers A, B, C

Step 3: Compare A and B. If A is greater perform step 4 else perform step 5.

Step 4: Compare A and C. If A is greater, output "A is greatest" else output "C

is greatest". Perform step 6.

Step 5: Compare Band C. If B is greater, output "B is greatest" else output "C

is greatest".

Step 6: Stop

ALGORITHM 2

Step 7: Start

Step 8: Read the three numbers A, B, C

Step 9: Compare A and B. If A is greater, store A in MAX, else store B in MAX.

Step 10: Compare MAX and C. If MAX is greater, output "MAX is greatest"

else output "C is greatest".

Step 11: Stop

•Both the algorithms accomplish the same goal, but in different ways. The

programmer selects the algorithm based on the advantages and disadvantages of

each algorithm.

•For example, the first algorithm has more number of comparisons, whereas in

the second algorithm an additional variable MAX is required.

FLOWCHART

FLOWCHART• A flowchart is a diagrammatic representation of the logic for solving a

task.

• drawn using boxes of different shapes with lines connecting them to show

the flow of control.

• The purpose of drawing a flowchart is to make the logic of the program

clearer in a visual form.

•There is a famous saying "A photograph is equivalent to thousand

words". The same can be said of flowchart.

•The logic of the program is communicated in a much better way

•Since it is a diagrammatic representation-forms a common medium of

communication.

Flowchart Symbols

Sequence Selection

Control structures in flowchart

Examples of flowchart

1. The first flowchart computes the product of any two numbers and gives

the result. flowchart is a simple sequence of steps to be performed in a

sequential order.

2. The second flowchart compares three numbers and finds the maximum of

the three numbers. This flowchart uses selection. In this flowchart,

decision is taken based upon a condition, which decides the next path to

be followed, i.e. If A is greater than B the true (Yes) path is followed else

the false (No) path is followed. Another decision again made while

comparing MAX with C.

3. The third flowchart finds the sum of first 100 integers. Here, iteration

(loop) is formed so that some steps are executed repetitively until they

fulfill some condition exit from the repetition.

• In the decision box, the value of I is compared with 100. If false (No), a

loop is created which breaks when the condition becomes true (Yes).

• Flowcharts have their own benefits; however, they have some

limitations too.

• A com and long flowchart may run into multiple pages, which becomes

difficult to understand follow. Moreover, updating a flowchart with the

changing requirements is a challenging job.

PSEUDO CODE

Pseudo code •Pseudo code consists of short, readable and formally-styled English language

used for explaining an algorithm.

•Pseudo code does not include details like variable declarations, subroutines

•Pseudo code is a short-hand way of describing a computer program.

•Using pseudo code, it is easier for a programmer or a non-programmer to

understand the general working of the program, since it is not based on any

programming language.

•It is used to give a sketch of the structure of the program, before the actual

coding. It uses the structured constructs of the programming language but is

not machine readable•Pseudo code cannot be compiled or executed

Preparing a Pseudo Code 1.Pseudo code is written using structured English.

2.In a pseudo code, some terms are commonly used to represent the

various actions.

• Input (INPUT, GET, READ)

• output (OUTPUT, PRINT, DISPLAY)

• Calculations (COMPUTE, CALCULATE)

• incrementing (INCREMENT)

• ADD, SUBTRACT, INITIALIZE used for addition, subtraction, and

initialization, respectively.

3. Figure 2.5 shows the different pseudo code structures.

• The sequence structure is simply a sequence of steps to be executed in linear order.

• There are two main selection constructs

• if-statement

• case statement

• In the if-statement, if the condition is true then the THEN part is executed otherwise

the ELSE part is executed. There can be variations of the if-statement also, like

there may not be any ELSE part or there may be nested ifs.

• The case statement is used where there are a number of conditions to be checked. In

a case statement, depending on the value of the expression, one of the conditions is

true, for which the corresponding statements are executed. If no match for the

expression occurs, then the OTHERS option which is also the default option, is

executed.
