Flowcharts and Pseudocodes

“In this presentation, you will be presented with a
series of scenarios applicable to your daily lives. Those
scenarios will be converted to their flowchart and
pseudocode counterpart. I advice you to try and come
up with your version of the corresponding flowchart
and pseudocodes before proceeding to the succeeding
slides.”

P01: Food Intake | Scenario

One of our daily routines is eating. However, you can
only eat if there is food already prepared for you. If
there are none, you should cook food on your own
before you take a big gulp.

Now, how will that look like if turned to flowchart and

pseudocode?

P02: Weekend Routine | Scenario

Is it weekends? Is it weekends? That is one of the
questions we ask ourselves daily. We wake up in the
morning, check if it is weekends already. If it is, we sleep
again. If it is not, we take a bath.

Now, how will that look like if turned to flowchart and

pseudocode?

P03: Daily Chores | Scenario

We are given chores depending on the day. On
weekends, we are tasked to do the laundry. On
weekdays except Friday, we are tasked to do a general
cleaning. On Fridays, we are tasked to a grocery spree.

Now, how will that look like if turned to flowchart and

pseudocode?

P04: Study, Games and Everything Nice | Scenario

As students, we were forced to a study habit. On
weekdays, we are to study our lessons. On weekends,
we are free to play with the computer. After studying
and playing computer games, we still have time to
watch television.

Now, how will that look like if turned to flowchart and

pseudocode?

P05: Garden, Oh My Garden | Scenario

Imagine a huge house with a beautiful garden. With
that, you need to ensure the garden is kept well-
maintained. If it is messy, you should do something
about it. If you are the owner, call the caretaker to do
the gardening; if not, do the gardening yourself.

Now, how will that look like if turned to flowchart and

pseudocode?
