Chapter 1, Problem 44E

Explanation of Solution

Four areas a practitioner must be skilled:

Algorithmic thinking:

• Algorithmic thinking is a key ability for solving a problem.
• In this, every problem is solved using some algorithm. An algorithm contains certain steps in order to solve a problem.
• This algorithmic approach says that everything can be done through “IF-THEN” process.

Representation (data storage):

• In problem solving, storage of data is very important.
• For computing data, it must be represented in some way. The representation helps the computer to process the information easily.
• A practitioner should be thorough with the representations of data in the memory...
