Same algorithm, different representations

Same algorithm, different representations

Comparison of a pass/resit algorithm shown as flowchart, pseudocode, and Python 3 with matching input, decision, and output steps labelled

An algorithm is a precise set of steps for solving a problem, while a program is that same logic written in a language a computer can run. When you convert a flowchart or pseudocode into Python 3, preserve the inputs, outputs, decisions, loops and order of steps.
