objectives:

$$ To establish a connection between the conceptual elements that support

computational thinking, creativity, collaboration, and computational

artifacts.

$$ To practice your own high$-$level thinking competencies and to produce

content.

Assignment: Finish all five parts below, complete one part before moving to the next

one. When you are done, submit your assignment on Canvas.

Computational thinking

Computational problem solving incorporates four major concepts:

$$ Decomposition is the breaking down of a complex problem into a series

of smaller or simpler problems.

$$ Pattern recognition is the identification of common characteristics

among different problems and within the same problem. Recognizing

these patterns can further simplify the problem.

$$ Algorithms are sequences of instructions used to solve problems or

perform tasks in a structured manner.

$$ Abstraction is the generalization of a problem so that a solution can be

applied to different specific problems.

Part $1$: Create an Assembly Guide: $(30$ points$)$

You have the following situation: You Bought a bookshelf as in here, the bookshelf

does not have an assembly guide. You are asked to write an assembly guide. You

need to follow the Google computational thinking approach $($decompose$,$ pattern

recognition, algorithm design, and abstraction$).$ Think of how to break the problem

into subproblems, find patterns in the subproblems, find the algorithm, and reach

an abstraction$.$

Create a text file to write your assembly guide for the bookshelf.
