Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
pseudocode is the:
A
order of events
B
instruction given to a computer by a programmer
C
paragraphs
D
writing out a program in regular language before translating it into actual code
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Description: Pseudocode is not an actual programming language. So it cannot be compiled into an executable program. It uses short terms or simple English language syntaxes to write code for programs before it is actually converted into a specific programming language.

Detailed explanation-2: -Pseudocode is an artificial and informal language that helps programmers develop algorithms. Pseudocode is a “text-based” detail (algorithmic) design tool. The rules of Pseudocode are reasonably straightforward. All statements showing “dependency” are to be indented. These include while, do, for, if, switch.

Detailed explanation-3: -It is simple; enter your pseudocode into the first box and then press the convert button. Then, a box pops out that contains your python code, that you just converted from pseudocode. All in all, it takes literally 10 seconds. It is the quickest way to generate python code from pseudocode!

Detailed explanation-4: -Pseudocode is sometimes used as a detailed step in the process of developing a program. It allows designers or lead programmers to express the design in great detail and provides programmers a detailed template for the next step of writing code in a specific programming language.

Detailed explanation-5: -Pseudocode is commonly used to teach algorithms for computer science students in an introductory programming course. When an automatic translation tool is available, students can translate their pseudocode to source code and then execute the resulted source code to check whether their algorithm is correct.
