    Advantages of Pseudocode
                        It is language-independent and can be used by most programmers to express the design
                         in plain and natural language.
                        Programmers do not have to think about syntax, they simply have to concentrate on logic.
                        The focus is on the steps to solve a problem rather than how to use the computer
                         language.

                                              Coding fact

                       American computer scientist 'Margaret Hamilton,' wrote the computer code which
                       helped to save the Apollo moon landing mission.

                        a.  What describes the steps of an algorithm in a

                            human-understandable language?                                  ........................................

                            pseudocode?                                                     ........................................

                     GETTING STARTED WITH BLOCK CODING

                     Block-based coding uses drag and drop approach. It’s a programming activity to develop
                     computational  thinking.  You  can  use  coding  instruction  'blocks'  to  perform  a  variety
                     of tasks.

                                                   To display a message 'Hello World'
                      To perform the task, follow these steps:

                      Step 1:   Visit the link: https://arcade.makecode.com/, Makecode Arcade opens.

                      Step 2:   Click on 'New Project'             . Write the name of your project 'Hello World..!!',

                                and then click on 'Create'.

                                                                                           Algorithms with Block Coding  73
