Document Summary

Bugs that were not detected in the testing phase that the users discover subsequently must be corrected, additional enhancements that user"s requests are evaluated so that appropriate program modifications can be made, the procedures and results are documented. Programming is the process of translating a task into a series of commands a computer will use to perform that task. Identifying which parts of a task a computer can perform. Describing those tasks in a very specific and complete manner. Translating this description into the language spoken by the computer"s cpu. Each programming project follows a number of stages from conception to final deployment, sometimes referred to as the pdlc. Must develop a complete description of the problem. Problem statement is the starting point of the programming work it is a clear description of what tasks the computer program must accomplish and how to execute these tasks.
