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: -Pseudocode cannot be compiled or interpreted. It doesn’t follow the programming language’s syntax; it is thus written in pseudocode so that any programmers or non-programmers can easily understand it. Consider the following source code example: Int n = 10. for( i=0; i<n; i++)

Detailed explanation-4: -Pseudo code: It’s simply an implementation of an algorithm in the form of annotations and informative text written in plain English. It has no syntax like any of the programming language and thus can’t be compiled or interpreted by the computer.
