7waIS2 Algorithms 4 - Pseudocode

Pseudocode and Logo

LO - Apply sequencing techniques using pseudocode and interactive resource

Outcomes - We will know you've achieved this LO if you can write basic code to give instructions. 


STARTER: Answer my question in your homework booklet. Do you now understand what a flowchart looks like and how you've been able to apply your knowledge to online programming.

Main 1 - Logo - Psuedocode

http://www.j2e.com/logo.html - Your challenge. Draw a square!
Level 1 gives you symbols, Level 2 allows you to write some basic code ...

What instructions would you give, as an algorithm to draw your square?
How could you make your instructions more efficient?

Challenge - using the function that we've just discovered. Could you draw a hexagon, circle or any other shape?

How could you represent this as pseudocode using the following commands?
