One of the models of designing simple computer programs is using the I P O
model. A student answers the following questions:
Input
- What information is needed from the user?
- What variables will be needed to store that information? (Provide the names
and types)
- How will you make your input user friendly?
Processing
- What needed to happen to the data before it can be outputted?
- What formulas are needed?
Output
- What needs to be outputted?
- What format should it be displayed in?
- How will you make your output user friendly?
