C programming

Pseudocode is a high-level description of an algorithm that uses a mixture of natural language and some programming language-like constructs.
It helps in planning and understanding the logic of an algorithm before it is implemented in a specific programming language.
Pseudocode is not tied to the syntax of any particular programming language, making it a versatile tool for algorithm design.

Example :

Procedure Add_Two_Numbers(A, B)
Sum = A + B
Return Sum
End Procedure

Add Two Numbers is procedure(function) name.
A and B are the inputs representing the two numbers to added.
Sum is variable that store the result of adding of two numbers and then return the sum.
