A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Pseudocode

Pseudocode is an informal, language-independent way of describing the steps of an algorithm before writing actual program code. For examinations, you must master how to express sequence, selection, repetition, input, output, and simple data processing clearly, because pseudocode tests your ability to think logically without being distracted by the syntax of a specific programming language.
