Pseudocode doesn’t have any hard and fast rules, there are certainly some things you should do to make understanding the pseudocode easier for all involved.
Keep It Simple – Simplicity and clarity are key. Write down what the actions will be, not how to program them.
Explain Everything – Don’t include information without explaining it. Add comments to explain your steps and reasoning if needed.
Practice Makes Perfect – Just like learning a new programming language, learning how to write pseudocode takes time. Practice writing and reviewing it now.
Review the Pseudocode – The biggest reason to write pseudocode is to catch any mistakes before programming. So, review the finished product thoroughly to nip errors in the bud.
Translate into Programming Language – Implement the pseudocode by tracing it with your computer language. Compare the finished product to the pseudocode.
