Lesson 7 - Program Development Cycle (PCTA)

The "PCTA" Program Development Cycle

In our final lesson we'll learn a simple and powerful framework for writing computer programs.

The 10 minute video explains each part of the PCTA cycle:

  • Plan - Know your objectives. Plan your program. Outline using VBA comments
  • Code - Reuse existing code. Search online for VBA code snippets. Understand maker time vs manager time.
  • Test - What can you check? Does it break? Is the code readable?
  • Act - Follow up on test... Can you improve? New ideas?

I hope you enjoyed this course as much as I enjoyed creating it for you!

I want you to keep improving your VBA knowledge and coding skills.
