Something that helps me is to write "pseudocode", which isn't programming at all.

More like a series of statements written in plain english that you can read through to logically see the flow of the program.

On the first pass, just write the obvious general steps...

* Set up the input variables,
* Ask user for input,
* Calculate result,
* Display result on screen,
* Send result to serial port.
Once that's done, go to each line and add detail...

* Set up the input variables,
* length, width, height, mass
* Volume, density
* Ask user for input,
* ...
This lets you read and correct your logic as you flesh out what you want the program to do.

DamonHD:
And then those should then stay in the code as comments, to explain what you intended to do, so that when you have a bug (and did something different by mistake) you can get back to what you intended...
