Pseudo-Code

Pseudo code is written more close to programming language. It may be considered as augmented programming language, full of comments and descriptions.

Pseudo code avoids variable declaration but they are written using some actual programming language’s constructs, like C, Fortran, Pascal etc.

Pseudo code contains more programming details than Structured English. It provides a method to perform the task, as if a computer is executing the code.

Example

Program to print Fibonacci up to n numbers.

void function Fibonacci
Get value of n;
Set value of a to 1;
Set value of b to 1;
Initialize I to 0
for (i=0; i< n; i++)
{
   if a greater than b
   {
      Increase b by a;
      Print b;
   }
   else if b greater than a
   {
      increase a by b;
      print a;
   }
}
