Year 11 Computer Science: Converting Pseudocode and Python

1. Explanation

Pseudocode is a human-readable way to describe algorithms using structured steps.

Python is a real programming language that requires correct syntax.

Example:

Pseudocode:

FOR i <- 1 TO 5

OUTPUT i

ENDFOR

Python:

for i in range(1, 6):

print(i)

2. Important Notes

Loops:

Pseudocode: FOR i <- 1 TO 10 => Python: for i in range(1, 11):

Pseudocode: WHILE condition => Python: while condition:

If Statements:

Pseudocode: IF condition THEN => Python: if condition:

Pseudocode: ELSE IF cond THEN => Python: elif condition:

Pseudocode: ELSE => Python: else:

Input / Output:

Pseudocode: OUTPUT "Hello" => Python: print("Hello")


Pseudocode: INPUT name => Python: name = input("Enter name: ")

Variables:

Pseudocode: SET total TO 0 => Python: total = 0

Pseudocode: total <- total + 1 => Python: total = total + 1

3. Quiz Questions

Q1. What is the Python equivalent of: SET count TO 10?

A. let count = 10

B. count := 10

C. count = 10

D. count == 10

Answer: C

Q2. What does this pseudocode do?

FOR i <- 1 TO 3

OUTPUT i * 2

ENDFOR

A. Prints 2, 4, 6

B. Prints 1, 2, 3

C. Multiplies i by 3

D. Error

Answer: A

Q3. Which is correct Python syntax?

A. IF x > 0 THEN:

B. if x > 0:

C. if x > 0 then
D. IF x > 0:

Answer: B

4. Practical Exercises

Convert Pseudocode to Python:

Pseudocode:

SET total TO 0

FOR i <- 1 TO 5

total <- total + i

OUTPUT total

Python:

total = 0

for i in range(1, 6):

total += i

print(total)

Pseudocode:

INPUT age

IF age >= 18 THEN

OUTPUT "Adult"

ELSE

OUTPUT "Minor"

Python:

age = int(input("Enter your age: "))

if age >= 18:


print("Adult")

else:

print("Minor")

Convert Python to Pseudocode:

Python:

name = input("Enter name: ")

print("Hello " + name)

Pseudocode:

INPUT name

OUTPUT "Hello " + name

Python:

for i in range(3):

print(i)

Pseudocode:

FOR i <- 0 TO 2

OUTPUT i

ENDFOR

5. Challenge Task

Write pseudocode for the following Python code:

Python:

num = int(input("Enter a number: "))


if num % 2 == 0:

print("Even")

else:

print("Odd")
