    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 solving a problem rather than how to use the computer language.

                     Example 1: Write pseudocode to calculate profit and loss.
                     Solution:
                     Read CostPrice
                     Read SellingPrice

                     IF (SellingPrice  >CostPrice ) THEN
                       Profit = SellingPrice - CostPrice

                       PRINT Profit
                     ELSE
                       Loss= CostPrice - SellingPrice

                       PRINT Loss
                     Example 2: Write pseudocode to print 'Above average marks' if the average marks in the three
                     subjects are greater than 60 and 'Below average marks' if the average marks are less than or equal
                     to 60.
                     Solution:

                     Read Eng_Marks
                     Read Math_Marks

                     Read Sci_Marks
                     Sum=  Eng_Marks+Math_Marks+Sci_Marks

                     Avg_Marks = Sum / 3
                     IF (Avg_Marks > 60) THEN

                       PRINT "Above Average marks"
                     ELSE

                       PRINT "Below Average marks"

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