guess here is the best place to ask this question since a lot of people knows how to do programming.. so I am taking my 1st programming class.. and i got a small problem.. idk how to write peudocode..

here's the problem..

The variable X starts with the value 0.
The variable Y starts with the value 5.
Add 1 to X.
Add 1 to Y.
Add X and Y, and store the result in Y.
Display the value in Y on the screen.

now I need to write it in psuedocode and also the output..

anyone willing to explain it and give me some examples..

IMHO this is already pseudocode.

The variable X starts with the value 0.
The variable Y starts with the value 5.
Add 1 to X.
Add 1 to Y.
Add X and Y, and store the result in Y.
Display the value in Y on the screen.

You can write it also as:

x=0
y=5
x=x+1
y=y+1
y=x+y
print y

This is not a pseudocode! This is a python code

@chase15
Well, there's not much to explain, everything pretty obvious:

Code:

x=0          # Here you define that x is equal to 0
y=5          # Same with y, just value is different
x=x+1        # You assign x result of x+1 (which is 0+1), x=1
y=y+1        # Same with y (5+1), y will be 6
y=x+y        # Assign y result of x+y (1+6), y=7
print y      # Guess what that does :)

Output is

Code:

Note, that in some (well, most) languages you have to declare (and initialize) variable before you can use it, so it will be like this:

Code:

var x=0
var y=5
x=x+1
...
