Jackson system development

Jackson System Development is a way of making computer programs. Imagine you are building a castle out of blocks! First, you need to think about what kind of castle you want, what color it should be, and how tall it should be. This is called planning.

In Jackson System Development, we also do planning first. We think about what the program should do, what kind of information it needs to have, and how it should look. Then we make a plan for the program.

Next, we start building the program, just like you build your castle! We start with the bottom block and slowly add on more blocks. We have to be careful with each block to make sure they fit together correctly, just like we have to be careful with each part of the program to make sure they work together correctly.

Once we have built the program, we test it out to make sure it works properly. We can find any problems and fix them, just like if your castle falls apart, you can rebuild it correctly.

Finally, we use the program and make sure it's helpful for people. Just like if someone was playing with your castle, you want to make sure they like it and have fun with it.

That's Jackson System Development in a nutshell! It's about planning, building, testing, and using computer programs.
