PROGRAM
D
PSEUDOCODE
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -METHODS OF SPECIFYINGALGORITHMPseudocodeSpecifies the steps of algorithm usingessentially natural language ofsuperimposed control structure. Pseudo means “pretend” or “false”PseudoCode is pretend or false computer code; generic English-like terms that aresomewhat like computer code.

Detailed explanation-2: -The main difference between Pseudocode and Flowchart is that pseudocode is an informal high-level description of an algorithm while flowchart is a pictorial representation of an algorithm. An algorithm is a step by step sequence of solving a given problem. There can be several approaches to solve a problem.

Detailed explanation-3: -Writing in pseudocode is similar to writing in a programming language. Each step of the algorithm is written on a line of its own in sequence. Usually, instructions are written in uppercase, variables in lowercase and messages in sentence case.

Detailed explanation-4: -Pre-code planning plays an important role in creating an algorithm or a program, helping programmers plan how to write the codes. Pseudocode is one of the ways flowcharts can be helpful in programming. Read on to discover what pseudocode flowchart is and how each is applied in the planning phase before coding.

Detailed explanation-5: -There are two commonly used tools to help to document program logic (the algorithm). These are flowcharts and pseudocode. Generally, flowcharts work well for small problems but pseudocode is used for larger problems. We will use both methods here.
