A Level Computer Science Problem Solving Workbook

A problem sloving workbook for A Level students to develop their computational thinking and programming.

The book draws from complex problems such as working out the 10001st Prime Number or Even Fibonacci Numbers, and guides the students through stages of problem solving, aiming to develop them into competant problem solvers.

The steps are:
Step 1 - List key facts
Step 2 - Solve a concrete example
Step 3 - List the steps required to solve that concrete example
Step 4 - Decomposing the problem
Step 5 - Plan your algorithm with Pseudocode
Step 6 - Program and test

NOTE: These solutions are complex and thus do not come with a mark scheme or model answers, as students should be encouraged to work these through to a solution that they can test in a programming language themselves.
