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.
