How did you approach analyzing the programming requirements in order to create your algorithm for the solution? How did you use deductive reasoning to logically move through the steps necessary to create pseudo-code processes to achieve a result?

Critical Thinking Assessment questions

NOTE 1: View the ”Writing Algorithms Applying Analysis and Deduction” presentation before attempting this assessment activity!

NOTE 2: Complete this activity before attempting the Week 3 Victorian Mansion Activity!

As you have studied throughout this course, algorithms are the basis of computer science. You were also shown that all decisions in life are essentially an algorithm that an individual deductively thinks through in order to solve a problem to gain a result. View the Writing Algorithms Applying Analysis and Deduction presentation in Week 3 then answer the following questions in relation to what you have learned about completing algorithms in this course.

How did you approach analyzing the programming requirements in order to create your algorithm for the solution? How did you use deductive reasoning to logically move through the steps necessary to create pseudo-code processes to achieve a result? Did your algorithm designs change as you logically stepped through the processes needed to reach the solution? If so, in what way? Explain your reasoning.

Task 1: Create a new discussion topic on or before Friday at 11:55 p.m. by clicking the ”Add a new discussion’ button with your answers to the Week 3 Critical Thinking Assessment questions. Your response to the exercise questions should be a minimum of 150 words. Going over the minimum word length requirement is acceptable; however, I am not looking for 500+ words! It is suggested that you use MS Word or another word processing application that can check spelling/grammar and can show the word count.
