slide 2
-
Debugger: this is helps locate, identify and rectify errors in a program
-
-
Break point: interrupts a program on a specific line of code, allowing the programmer to compare the values of variables against expected values. The program code can then usually be executed one line at a time. This is called single-stepping
Variable watch: displays the current value of variables, allowing coders to see the effects of code on the variables. Alternatively a variable watch may be set, which will interrupt the program flow if the watched variable reaches a specified value

-
Interpreter: Translates each line/a single line of source code and executes it, as the program is being used.
-
Automatic colour coding: Changes keywords, literals and annotation to different colours to make them more recognisable
Linker: this is a program which allows previously compiled code from software libraries to be linked together
slide 3
Emulator: will provide an emulator to run the code/app so no physical device required if you are programming a mobile app
-
-
GUI creation: Allows programmer to create a GUI by dragging and dropping controls (buttons, etc...) onto a form.
-
Code optimisation: makes the code more efficient, for example giving warning message when variables have been declared but not used
IDE's!!!!!!!
To aid in the process of creating software, programmers use an IDE (Integrated Development Environment).
An IDE is a set of programming tools for writing software, all accessed from a common user interface and menus.
