Assignment 1 Guidance
Task 1 - State your simple business problems
to be solved (P1)
First, you need to provide an overview about Algorithm with image illustration, explanation
and example.
Next, you will have to represent a small and simple problem, why it is needed to be solved
and how an algorithm could help to solve it. It could be a simple problem such as:
• Sorting Algorithm: Selecting Sort, Bubble Sort, Insertion Sort, etc.
• Searching Algorithm: Linear Search, Binary Search, etc.
(Word limit: 100 – 250 words)
Task 2 - Analyse the problem and design the
solutions by the use of suitable methods (P1)
In this part, you will have to analyse the business problem and turn it into application
requirements. Then, you will need to design the algorithm to solve the problem by using
suitable diagrams such as Flowchart, Activity Diagrams, etc.

Task 3 - Demonstrate the compilation and
running of a program (P1 – M1)
Next, you have to demonstrate how the application is implemented by using suitable
programming language. Source code and screenshots of the program have to be included
with clear explanations.
You need also explain briefly what is Software Development Life Cycle and how the source
code is compiled and run.
