PRG 211 Week 2  Discussion    
 
Discussion 1

 
How is pseudo-code used to assist in writing an algorithm?  Think of an everyday activity—such as preparing dinner or getting children ready for school—and write an algorithm to accomplish this procedure. Start with an overall view, then add details.
 
Discussion 2
 
Is a flowchart more valuable in documenting the logic of a program than just the coded instructions in the programming language?   Do you think the interactive Visual Logic flowchart program more useful than a manually drawn flowchart?  What challenges did you encounter when creating your first Visual Logic flowchart?
