PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT LIFE
CYCLE (PDLC)
▪ Pseudocode syntax:
 INPUT – indicates a user will be inputting something
 OUTPUT – indicates that an output will appear on the
screen
 WHILE – a loop (iteration that has a condition at the
beginning)
 FOR – a counting loop (iteration)
 REPEAT – UNTIL – a loop (iteration) that has a
condition at the end
 IF – THEN – ELSE – a decision (selection) in which a
choice is made
 any instructions that occur inside a selection or
iteration are usually indented
