What program evaluation means

What program evaluation means

Diagram splitting program evaluation into fitness for purpose and efficiency, with requirements, test data, expected output, actual output and logical reasoning on one side, and number of compares, loop passes and memory use on the other

When you evaluate a program, ask two questions: is it fit for purpose, and does it use resources efficiently? A program can run without crashing and still fail a requirement or waste time and memory.
