16. Putting it all together Principles of computational thinking

17. Putting it all together It’s all just data Shopping list DNA sequence Galactic coordinates Function Program 0s and 1s

18. Putting it all together Data doesn’t mean anything on its own, it has to be interpreted 01100100011000010111100001100001 data 1,684,108,385 1.6635613602263159e+22

19. Putting it all together Programming is about creating and composing abstractions Meaningful names Comprehensible units Separate interface from implementation Clarity over cleverness

20. Putting it all together Models are for computers, views are for us Structured data is better than unstructured data

21. Putting it all together Paranoia makes us productive Improving quality improves productivity Think before you code Validate Review Automate

22. Putting it all together Better algorithms are better than better hardware Algorithmic complexity Insertion sort: O(n 2 ) … O(n 2 ) Quick sort: O(n log n) … O(n 2 ) Merge sort: O(n log n) … O(n log n)

23. Putting it all together Better algorithms are better than better hardware Algorithmic complexity Insertion sort: O(n 2 ) … O(n 2 ) O(1) Quick sort: O(n log n) … O(n 2 ) O(log n) Merge sort: O(n log n) … O(n log n) O(n)

24. Putting it all together Better algorithms are better than better hardware Algorithmic complexity Insertion sort: O(n 2 ) … O(n 2 ) O(1) Quick sort: O(n log n) … O(n 2 ) O(log n) Merge sort: O(n log n) … O(n log n) O(n) Algorithms and data structures

25. Putting it all together The tool shapes the hand Using a tool changes how you do the work the tool helps you to do Writing software changes your understanding of what computers/software can do

26. Putting it all together “All work and no play…” Greatest productivity occurs in the first four to six hours Continuous work reduces cognitive function 25% for every 24 hours! “ Why Crunch Modes Doesn't Work: Six Lessons”, Evan Robinson http://www.igda.org/why-crunch-modes-doesnt-work-six-lessons
