My blog

Today I learned more about how to write in pseudocode and how to translate a program (written in Python) into pseudocode. I also learned more about how to write in Python.

I was good at writing up my pseudocode and did a good job writing some Python programs.

However I did make the mistake of using functions in Python when my tutor wanted us to code a program which could do the job without relying on them.

I should have clarified this point with him and made sure to write my program as he requested instead of jumping in and making the assumption that it would be OK. I will make sure to learn from my mistake in the future.

Deadline
To finish my pseudocode conversions by 08/10/2019
