Activity 3: What do you understand by computational thinking?

Explain your understanding of computational thinking in a short paragraph and indicate how useful it is to learn the concepts of it.



Computational thinking is the thought processes involved in formulating problems and their solutions so that the solutions are represented in a form that can effectively be carried out by an information-processing agent.
It can use the following processes to solve a problem:
1. Logical reasoning: predicting and analyzing
2. Algorithms: making steps and rules
3. Decomposition: breaking down into parts
4. Abstraction: removing unnecessary detail
5. Patterns and generalization: spotting and using similarities
6. Evaluation: making judgments
