Tri 1 Week 3 - Create Performance Task Notes

Create Performance Task Design

6 Steps:

Program purpose & function
- why you are making the program
- purpose = why you are making it
- function = what it does
Data Abstraction
- how do we make it so that data is separated from the code; storing variables, storing data in dictionaries etc.
Managing Complexity
- keeping data out of hard code
Procedural Abstraction
- using functions & making loops to go through procedures rather than listing steps over and over again
Algorithm Implementation
- implementing an algorithm in your code; ex. the score calculator at the end of the quizzes we’ve been making
Testing
- debugging
- checking to make sure everything works
