                               Dear Aadya, tell me, what is your            Topics Covered                      95%

                               And do you know how a fabric is made?





                 Please, Techie! We are here to learn about computer programming, not about

                 fabrics or uniforms.


                                My friend, can’t you see an IPO cycle in this discussion?

                                We can say that in this process, the input is the fabric and the output is the uniform.





                 Oh! Yes, you are right Techie. But where are we reaching at with the reference
                 to an IPO cycle?



                                 Dear Aadya, like us, computers also follow certain steps to perform any task and  when
                                we perform a sequence of steps to solve any problem, it is called an algorithm. Let us
                                now learn more about basic programming concepts and programming languages.
