CT Week 1
Official topics: variables, initialization, iterators, filtering, datatypes, flowcharts and sanity of data. citeturn1view2
Patterns:
- Variable tracing
- State changes
- Initialization
- Iterating through data
- Filtering
- Datatype identification
- Flowchart interpretation
- Detecting invalid/insane input
Example abstract pattern:
textvalue ← initial_value for each item: update value output value

What changes it?
What remains invariant?
What is the final state?
