Basic Syntax for Pseudocode?

[nite owl]

Hi just a quick question. Is there a universal syntax for Pseudocode(what's considered good practice?etc..), Or is it basically anything goes as long as its presented in a logical format?Thanks :)

It's called Python. :wink:
Programming in pseudocode.

Really, the whole point of pseudocode is that syntax does not matter as long as the logical structure is correct.

Oh ok so one persons Pseudocode could look totally different to another persons?

I'd say keep it similar to C but remove all initialization, maintenance and syntax that does not prove a point or illustrate what you're trying to explain.
