Only three basic control structures are employed. Structured design and structured programming contribute to software design by ensuring that programs are carefully thought out and designed. The design process is standardized to facilitate communication between programmers and between programmer and user. Name and describe the three basic control structures in structured programming . A series of statements, which are executed in the order in which they appear, with control passing unconditionally from one statement to the next.
Control then passes to the next program statement.
Repeats an instruction as long as the results of a conditional test are true. Control then returns to the test as long as the result is true. Once the result is false, control passes to the next program statement. Structure charts, program flowcharts, and pseudocode are methods of documenting the logic followed by program instructions. They are used in structured design to show each level of design and its relationship to other levels.
