Today’s Objective(s) and Bell-Ringer Bell-Ringer Assignment 1.What is an algorithm? 2.What is the pattern of designing and building computer software? 3.What are the four phases of the software development cycle? Objective Given the Alice textbook, TSW correctly describe the software development life cycle with no errors. (BUS )

Bell-Ringer 1. What is an algorithm? A step-by-step process that can be clearly defined

Bell-Ringer 2. What is the pattern of designing and building computer software? The software development cycle

Bell-Ringer 3. What are the four phases of the software development cycle? Design Implement Test Debug

Software Development Cycle Design Describe the objects, methods, and initial scene for the new Alice world. Debug Correct each method’s design and coding, and the initial state of the world Implement Add the necessary objects to the world, position them, and code their methods. Test Test each method to see if it works by itself and with other methods.
