PseudoCode Exercises

The document lists 14 exercises that can be solved using algorithms in pseudocode, including adding numbers, calculating ages, areas, prices, drawing shapes, calculating totals and taxes from multiple items, searching for objects, selecting the heaviest item, monitoring temperatures and emails, grading tests, and determining the sign of a subtraction result. An algorithm would be needed to generalize the process for any number of items or inputs in the calculations and conditionally perform different actions based on the results.

13. Mark a 10 question test and compute a grade on a 10-point scale
a. Convert the score to a letter grade based on the following:
i. 90 or 100 = A
ii. 80 = B
iii. 70 = C
iv. Anything else = F
14. Subtract 2 numbers. If the result is positive, say Positive; if the result is
negative, say Negative. If the result is 0, say Zero
