Pseudocode is a human-readable version of the code.
It's an important skill for many reasons.
- First, when you pseudocode before creating the former code, it allows to thing through the logic of your problem in advance.
- Secondly, you can later provide this information to others that are seeking to understand the decisions and how your code works.
The language within the pseudocode has some unique features.
- some of the lines could begin with verbs such as: pick up, open, close, etc.
- some lines include conditional statements, like if, or else if.
- there are expressions that can be stated as true or false, called boolean expressions.
- some lines have statements such as go back to, called loops.
