How to apply Algorithmic Design and Data Structure Techniques in Structured Programs

Image
 What is an Algorithm, and how do you apply it? An algorithm is considered a step-by-step procedure that has instructions designed to complete a certain command to receive an output.  There are a few important categories of Algorithms, which are delete, update, sort, insert, and search. How to apply it? In order to apply these techniques to structured programs, we need to be able to first understand the issue and be able to define all the outputs and inputs. We should then choose something appropriate to arrange the data in, such as arrays, trees, or lists.  This step to identify which data style we need to use is essential because some data structures may hold less data than others. Some methods can give a more detailed output compared to others. Making sure we know what data we have and understanding the outcomes each Data structure provides is really important to apply to any structured program.  What is a Tree data structure? This data structure is considered "hierarchical&quo

Java Installation

     Before downloading anything on your computer, you first want to make sure you know what it is that you download. In this case, we need to download JAVA. We can do this by searching "java" on Google search, and it'll come up with multiple results. in this case, we will click on the first link "JAVA | Oracle"      Based on the specification of your computer, a download link will be listed below, which you can click to download and it'll install onto your computer. There will be multiple options for Windows, Linux, MacOS, and other operating systems. https://www.java.com/en/ The above link is to install java for Windows devices.      Once this is downloaded, you want to run the program to set it up. After this, you must install an IDE to create our first project, "HelloWorld." A resource I used to help me with this process is the YouTube video linked below. We will be installing Apache Netbeans IDE 19 on a Windows laptop. https://www.youtube.com/
