The aim of this unit is to provide learners with an understanding of the concepts of a computer program and how to write and analyse the structure of simple sequential programs in pseudocode. Program control statements are identified, explained, and implemented in constructing simple programs with the help of one-, two-, and three-dimensional arrays.
Simple sort algorithms using arrays are also taught and depicted in pseudocode. The concepts of file handling, or the opening and closing of files and how they are coded in pseudocode specifically, are also explained. The learner is given practice in writing pseudocode with the help of exercises before undertaking similar questions in a test environment.
