Start to Code

Software developers like to think about software development as solving a series of problems. Think about the software you use every day.

The challenging part are finding and implementing the solution.

There is a general approach for solving problem by software developers, called 4P's:

1. Preparation = understand the problem and think of solution
2. Plan = plan out the solution
3. Perorm = perform the actions
4. Perfect = it doesn't mean the project will be perfect

Try it in FitnessFrog that we will build next.

1. Preparation
   • Users are needing to know how much time they're exercising
   • Users input the number of minutes they exercise.
   • Print running total
2. Plan
   • Prompt the user for minutes exercised
   • Add minutes exercised to a running total
   • Display the running total in minutes
   • Ask repeatedly until user quits
3. Perform
4. Perfect

We can define our steps ahead in comment section.

namespace ConsoleApp1
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main()
        {
            // Prompt the for minutes exercised
            // Add minutes exercised to a running total
            // Display the running total in minutes
            // Ask repeatedly until user quits
        }
    }
}
