Figure 2-1 Process of programming From figure 2-1 we can see that computer will do a lot of work from editing and inputting to outputting. Now we can define a job. In the processing, from inputting to outputting , all about this processing which computer does is a . A job is made up of many parts. Such as compiling, connecting, running, outputting and so on in figure 2-1. Every part is named (作业步). So we can say that a job is made up of many job steps .All steps are arranged by certain order. The result of one step is the precondition(前提) of next step to begin. For example, compiling can begin only after finishing editing and inputting. System: From the perspective of system(从系统角度看), one job is made up of program, data and job description(作业说明书). System controls data and program by job description.
