Basic Coding Terminology

What is the action of doing something over and over again?

What is a list of steps you can follow to finish a task?

Also known as Coding, it is the process of creating software.

Primary instructions that tells the computer what action to perform (e.g. run, jump, walk)

Solving problems with very specific sets of instructions because computers only do exactly what they are told to do.

Instead of traditional, text-based programming, this type of coding involves dragging "blocks" of instructions.

Details of instructions that adds more specific information about the command (e.g. direction, color, object to perform an action on)

Creating a sequence of instructions, or an algorithm, that makes a computer do something.

The step-by-step order in which instructions should occur.

What do we call the person who writes the instructions for the computer to complete a task?
