Pseudocode is a description of a computer programming algorithm that uses the structural conventions of programming languages, but omits detailed subroutines or language-specific syntax. It can also refer to a high level 'language' whose aim is to generalise the logic and program flow of a computer program
An example of how pseudocode differs from regular code is below.
Bob - "Bill, what the hell kind of pseudoword is Cougar Monkey, you just plain sh*t that word from thin air."
Bill - "Dunno, sounded good at the time, sheesh, don't be such a cougar monkey!"
The kind of work that Clark does, which is really the illusion of actual work. To the untrained eye, it looks like he is doing work, but people like Fred and I know better.
