"Differences Between Algorithm and Pseudocode"
Algorithm |
Pseudocode
|
1. Systematic logical approach which is a well-defined,
step-by-step procedure that allows a computer to solve a problem. |
It
is a simpler version of a programming code in plain English which uses short
phrases to write code for a program before it is implemented in a specific
programming language. |
2. Algorithms can be expressed using natural language,
flowcharts, etc. |
There are several formats which are used to write
pseudo-codes and most of them take down the structures from languages such as
C, Lisp, FORTRAN, etc. |
3. Procedure of algorithm is like this Start
from the leftmost element of arr[] and one
by one compare x with each element of arr[]. If x
matches with an element, return the index. If x
doesn’t match with any of elements, return -1. |
Procedure of
pseudocode is like this FUNCTION linearSearch(list, searchTerm): FOR index FROM 0 -> length(list): IF list[index] == searchTerm THEN RETURN index ENDIF ENDLOOP RETURN -1 END FUNCTION
