Python Tasks - Pseudocode

  Python Tasks - Pseudocode, Code and Explanations What is pseudocode? Pseudocode is a method of planning which enables the programmer to plan without worrying about syntax. Task 1:   Write a program that asks the user for a temperature in Fahrenheit and prints out the same temperature in Celsius. Example Pseudocode: x = Get user input x = Convert X to Celsius Output message displaying Celsius temperature Example code: The first part of the program rounds gets the precise temperature, contrary to the second program which uses the  round  function to round the result to the nearest whole number. The round function works as shown below: round(x,y) "x" is what you're rounding and "y" is how many decimal places you want to round up to. Task 2:   Write a program that converts from Fahrenheit to Celsius or from Celsius to Fahrenheit, depending on the user's choice. Pseudocode: x = input "Press 1 to convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius or Press 2 to convert from...

Pseudocode

  PART 1: INTRODUCTION A prototype is an early sample, model or release of a product created with the intention of concept testing and for learning purposes. They help us to learn without fully implementing our solutions. When developing user interfaces for our applications, we have several prototypes before the final interface. Some examples of these are wire-frames, graphical designs and mock-ups. The same applies to writing technical code. Directly writing code for complex purposes might result in time wastage. The causes of this range from improper algorithms to ambiguous program flow. To prevent this, we can use Pseudocode. Why use Pseudocode? What is Pseudocode? Pseudocode is an informal high-level description of a computer program or algorithm.  It is written in symbolic code which must be translated into a programming language before it can be executed. Are there alternatives to Pseudocode? There are some alternatives to Pseudocode. Some of them are  Flowcharts, d...

Flowchart Symbols

  Flowchart Symbols Here is a more comprehensive library of flowchart symbols.   Start/End Symbol The terminator symbol marks the starting or ending point of the system. It usually contains the word “Start” or “End.”   Action or Process Symbol  A box can represent a single step (“add two cups of flour”), or and entire sub-process (“make bread”) within a larger process.  Document Symbol   A printed document or report.  Multiple Documents Symbol  Represents multiple documents in the process.   Decision Symbol A decision or branching point. Lines representing different decisions emerge from different points of the diamond.  Input/Output Symbol  Represents material or information entering or leaving the system, such as customer order (input) or a product (output).  Manual Input Symbol  Represents a step where a user is prompted to enter information manually.  Preparation Symbol  Represents a set-up to another step in...
