【正文】 . An algorithm is a stepbystep procedure for finding the solution to a problem. It is at this stage in the process that topdown design techniques e into play. The designer looks for logical divisions within the problem, and divides it up into subtasks along those lines. This process is called deposition. If the subtasks are large, the designer can break them up into even smaller subtasks. This process continues until the problem has been divided into many small pieces, each of which does a simple, clearly understandable job. After the problem has been deposed into small pieces, each piece is further refined through a process called stepwise refinement. In stepwise refinement, a designer starts with a general description of what the piece of code should do, and then defines the functions of the piece in greater and greater detail until they are specific enough to be turned into MATLAB statements. Stepwise refinement is usually done with pseudo code, which will be described in the next section. It is often helpful to solve a simple example of the problem by hand during the algorithm development process. If the designer understands the steps that he or she went through in solving the problem by hand, then he or she will be better able to apply deposition and stepwise refinement to the problem. 4. Turn the algorithm into MATLAB statements. If the deposition and refinement process was carried out properly, this step will be very simple. All the programmer will have to do is to replace pseudo code with the corresponding MATLAB statements on a oneforone basis. 5. Test the resulting MATLAB program This step is the real killer. The ponents of the program must first be tested individually, if possible, and then the program as a whole must be tested. When testing a program, we must verify that it works correctly for all legal input data sets. It is very mon for a program to be written, tested with some standard data set, and released for use, only to find that it produces the wrong answers (or crashes) with a 本科生畢業設計（論文 ） 外文翻譯 different input data set. If the algorithm implemented in a program includes different branches, we must test all of the possible branches to confirm that the program operates correctly under every possible circumstance. Large programs typically go through a series of tests before they are released for general use (see Figure 2). The first stage of testing is sometimes called unit testing. During unit testing, the individual subtasks of the program are tested separately to confirm that they work correctly. After the unit testing is pleted, the program goes through a series of builds, during which the individual subtasks are bined to produce the final program. The first build of the program typically includes only a few of the subtasks. It is used to check the interactions among those subtasks and the functions performed by the binations of the subtasks. In successive builds, more and more subtasks are added, until the entire program is plete. Testing is performed on each build, and any errors(bugs) detected are corrected before moving on to the next build.
