      It says Pseudocode is a compact and informal high-level description of a computer programming algorithm that uses the structural conventions of programming languages, but omits detailed subroutines, variable declarations or language-specific syntax. The programming language is augmented with natural language descriptions of the details, where convenient.


      But can you be more specific......w ith C

        That looks pretty good to me, what about that description do you not understand?

        Also, pseudocode is not a programming language, so a person cannot be more specific "with C". (Unless, of course, you are asking us to do your homework for you...)

          Changed thread title to better describe the problem (did you know that threads whose titles do not follow the Posting Guidelines actually get FEWER responses?).

              Heya, anijenni.

              Here are several examples of a simple routine written in pseudocode (warning: your instructor KNOWS about this page; it is famous, so don't copy it, or you'll get an 'F'):
