Introduction
The tremendous effect of the computer and computing technology is in shaping modern
society for the betterment of mankind.
While computer science being implemented in schools of TamilNadu, we need to be

aware of the challenges that our school students face. The first of these is the paucity of
technology resources for computer science. It is absurd to teach computer science without
access to computing resources.
Getting computer access and internet connectivity for all children is a tremendous
technological and economic challenge.
However, given the pervasive impact of computer technologies, we need to attend to this
infrastructure challenge seriously and explore viable and innovative alternatives with
regard to hardware, software and internet connectivity technologies appropriate for rural
and urban schools in TamilNadu.
The present computertext book is prepared in accordance to the National Curriculum

Framework 2005 and TamilNadu Curriculum Framework 2017. One of the most basic and
useful tools an instructor possesses is the textbook. Therefore utmost care has been taken
to cover all the requirements needed for the teachers, students and parents.
The computer textbook is broadly classified as below.

7.1 Notations for Algorithms
• Programming language - is used for

expressing Algorithms to be executed by
Computers.
• Pseudo code – Used similar to

programming language.
• Flowchart – used as a diagrammatic

notation for representing Algorithms.
39

7.1.1 Programming language
• An Algorithm expressed in a Read 10 numbers and display odd

programming language such as C, C++, number count and even number count
Python, etc., is called as Program.
• Translator is used to translate the

program into instructions executable by
the Computer.

statements reveals the flow of the
program.
• An algorithm expressed as pseudo code

is not for computers to execute directly
but for human readers to understand.
7.1.3 Flowcharts
• It is a diagrammatic notation for

representing Algorithms.
• They depict the control flow of

Algorithms using diagrams in a visual
manner.
• A Flowchart is a collection of boxes

containing statements and conditions
which are connected by arrows showing
the order in which the boxes are to be

Recursion
To know the Understood the concept of
• Concepts of variants and invariants used • • Variants and invariants used in

in algorithmic techniques algorithmic techniques
• Apply algorithmic techniques in iteration • • Iteration and recursion process

and recursion process in algorithmic techniques.
Recall
From Chapter -6 Specification and Abstraction
• Specification of an algorithm consists of the name of the algorithm along

with the inputs, the input property and the desired input output-relation
• Specification of an algorithm is a contract between the designer and users of

the algorithm
• Abstraction is the process of hiding or ignoring the details irrelevant to the

task
• State is a basic and important abstraction. The state at any point of execution
is simply the values of the variables at that point.
43

From Chapter – 7 Decomposition and Composition
• Notations for algorithm – programming language, Pseudo code, flowchart
• Control statements are compound statements, used to alter the control flow
depending on the state of the process
• Three important control flow statements- Sequential, Alternative, Iterative
• Decomposition involves the breaking down of a problem into smaller and more
manageable problems, and combining the solutions of the smaller problems to
solve the original problem
• Refinement – Refine the sub problem or to abstract the sub problem

Introduction Examples of different loop statements
Since the state in which the action is executed

is not the same, the same action can be
repeated again and again to achieve the
desired output.
Let a and b are two variables, assign

8.2 Loop invariant 1) Design an iterative algorithm to
computer an. ie power( a, n),
In a loop, if L is an invariant of the loop of
the body B, then L is known as a loop Let power (2, 5 ) = 32. Verify the
invariant. output by performing the iteration as
follows.
while C

3 8 4 x 2 3 2+1 23
4 16 8 x 2 4 3+1 24
5 32 16 x 2 5 4+1 25
When the loop ends, p = ai, is still true,

but i = 5 ie the loop ends
p =an. The output is 32.
2) Using the above function, find the

cube-root of a number.
3√27 =3
Power ( 27, 1/3 ) =3

8.3 Invariants – Examples Example: 8.6 Chocolate bar.
The loop invariant is true in four crucial How many cuts are needed to break
points in a loop. Using loop invariant, the bar into its individual squares?
construct the loop and reason about the
properties of the variables at these points. Example 8.7
There are 6 equally spaced trees and 6

sparrows sitting on these trees, one
sparrow on each tree. If a sparrow flies
from one tree to another, then at the
same time another sparrow flies from
its tree to some other tree the same
distance away, but in the opposite
direction. Is it possible for all the
sparrows to gather on one tree?
8.4 Recursion
Example 8.8
Recursion is an algorithm design technique

8.4.2 Recursive Problem solving Example 8.10
Each solver should test the size of the input. Demonstration Method:
If the size is small enough, the solver should
output the solution to the problem directly. Customers are waiting in a line at a
If the size is not small enough, the solver counter. The man at the counter wants

reduced input
The problem is to calculate the length
[ A, B, C, D, E ]
Length [ A, B, C, D, E ] = 5
47

Recursive process for computing the
length of a sequence
Example 8.12
Design a recursive algorithm to

compute an. Construct an iterative
algorithm to computer an.
The recursive process resulting from

power(2, 5) is as given
power(2, 5)
= 2 x power(2,4)
= 2 x 2 x power( 2,3)
= 2x 2 x 2 x power( 2,2)
= 2x 2x 2 x 2 x power( 2,1)
= 2x 2x 2x 2 x 2 x power( 2,0)
= 2x 2x 2x 2 x 2 x 1
= 2x 2x 2x 2 x 2
= 2x 2x 2x 4
= 2x 2x 8
= 2x 16
= 32
Example 8.13

Finding the factorial of a number using
recursion.
Let the function fact(n) finds the

factorial of ‘n’.
fact(n)
If n=1 or n=0 then
return 1
--- hence factorial of 1 or 0 is 1
else
return fact n*(n-1)
Expand each step of the above

algorithm to find factorial of 5 which is
125.
4. Chocolate problem Thick paper or cardboard is used for
demonstration
5. A Triominoe L-shaped title formed

squares
Recap The students are questioned on
definitions of this chapter.
(Summarize today’s learned concepts)
Extensive Activities Example of this chapter is used for
assessing the understanding of the
problems
Examples are verified by demonstration
49

Definitions and concepts are difficult to be understood by the student.
The only remedial measure is repetition of this chapter by the student time and again.
The iterative statements or recursive statements should have proper exit condition.
Otherwise it leads to an infinite repetition.
