• Phase 2 _____________________________________
• Develop a logical model that illustrates the
  sequence of steps you will take to solve the
  problem
• __________________________ are smaller pieces of
  a program
• _________________________ illustrates the
  attributes and methods of an object
• ______________________ -- values that determine,
  for example, the appearance of an object.
• ______________________ -- instructions the object
  uses to generate output or perform actions.
• ___________________________ graphically represent
  the logic used to develop an algorithm
• _____________________________, included in
  flowcharts, allow the programmer to specify the
  code that will execute only if a condition is met
• _____________________________ expresses the
  step-by-step instructions using keywords and
  depicts logical groupings or structures using
  indentation
• Phase 3 ______________________________________
• Validate, or check, the program design
• Step through the solution with test data
• Compare the program design with the original
  requirements
• Phase 4 ______________________________________
• Write the code that translates the design into a
  program
• Create the user interface
• Create comments, or notes, within the code that
  explains the purpose of the code
