Lab 4 - Pseudocode

Challenge

The challenge here is to pseduocode a computer game and one normal activity.

Problems

When we first started, we had problems with the walking pseduocode and we got too specific by using lower-level instructions for the pseudocode when the assignment asked for high-level instructions only.

Reflection

Kira and I had an enthusiastic attitude and we enjoyed coming up with different ideas for the pseudocode.
