Pseudocode
Pseudocode
define password
create a pass_length variable and set it to 0
create a contains_number variable and set it to False
if the entire password hasn't been searched:
iterate to the next character of the password
increment the pass_length variable
if the current character of the password contains number:
set contains_number to True
if pass_length is greater than 8 and if contain_number is equal to True:
valid password
otherwise:
invalid password
Pseudocode is a description of an algorithm using everyday wording, but molded to appear similar to a simplified programming language.
Basic Programming Concepts
Lesson 1 of 1
- 2Data is a basic unit in programming. Without data, we couldn’t write any programs! But what is data? We may be familiar with data as information, or facts. In computing, data is the pieces of i…
- 4Every program is a set of instructions, executed in a certain order. This order, called control flow, is just as important as the instructions themselves. Computers can run instructions on thei…
