A list of steps, arranged in a specific logical order which, when executed, produces the solution for a problem is called...

• Algorithm

• Solution

• Pseudocode

• Flowchart

An Algorithm Must contain

• output

• Input

• User Instruction

• Lines

• Shapes

What is Pseudocode

• A semiformal, English-like language with limited vocabulary that can be used to design and describe algorithms.

• A formal language that is specifically used to write program.

• A graph used to depict or show a step by step solution using symbols which represent a task.

• A series of steps or statements that are executed in the order they are written in an algorithm.

What is the difference between a flowchart and pseudocode? 

• A flowchart is diagramatic whilst pseudocode is written in a programming language (eg. Pascal or Java) 
• A flowchart is textual but pseudocode is diagrammatic 
• A flowchart is a diagrammatic description of an algorithm whilst pseudocode is a textual description of an algorithm 
• A flowchart and pseudocode are the same thing 

What is pseudocode?

• A way of describing a set of instructions in text form

• A specific programming language that all computers use

• A diagrammatic representation of a set of instructions

What is a flowchart?

• A flowchart is a text-based way of designing an algorithm

• A flowchart is a specific programming language

• A flowchart is a diagram that represents a set of instructions
