Computational thinking is a problem-solving process that involves breaking down complex problems into manageable parts and using

concepts from computer science to develop solutions. This approach is used widely in computer programming and in areas where complex
problem-solving is essential. While it's often associated with computer science, computational thinking can be applied in many fields, from
math and science to everyday tasks.

Characteristics of Computational Thinking

1. Decomposition

This involves breaking down a large, complex problem into smaller, more manageable parts. By addressing each component separately, it
becomes easier to understand the overall problem and develop solutions for each part individually.

2. Pattern Recognition

This step focuses on identifying similarities or patterns within the smaller components of the problem. Recognizing patterns can help simplify
the problem and make it easier to apply solutions that have worked in similar situations before.

3. Abstraction

Abstraction is about focusing on the essential details of a problem while ignoring irrelevant information. This helps reduce complexity by
emphasizing the core aspects needed to find a solution without getting bogged down by unnecessary details.

4. Algorithm Design
Algorithm design involves creating a step-by-step plan or a set of instructions to solve a problem. This plan should be clear, repeatable, and
efficient. Algorithms are at the heart of computer programming but can also be applied to many processes in everyday life.

5. Evaluation

Once a solution is designed and implemented, it's important to evaluate its effectiveness. This involves testing the solution, identifying any
issues or improvements, and refining the solution to ensure optimal results.

6. Generalization

Generalization involves applying solutions to similar problems in different contexts. By generalizing solutions, we can solve a broader range of
problems more efficiently, building on prior knowledge and experiences.

Computational thinking enables systematic, logical problem-solving, helping tackle complex issues by using structured, methodical
approaches.
