Getting Started with Pseudocode

Examples

Simple sequence

prompt user for number 
set num1 to user_input 
prompt user for number 
set num2 to user_input 
set sum to num1 + num2
print sum

Using a conditional statement

prompt user for number
if input is not a number
    print "input is not a number"
    prompt user for new number
endif 
set num1 to user_input 
prompt user for number
if input is not a number
    print "input is not a number"
    prompt user for new number 
endif
set num2 to user_input 
set sum to num1 + num2
print sum

Multiple conditions

if input is not a number
    print "this is not a number"
else if input is odd
    print "the number is odd"
else the input is even
    print "the number is even"
endif
