Why Pseudo-Code?When I learned Python in 1999 it was advertised, among other things, as "executable pseudo code". At my universities numerical studies we used a Pascal style pseudo code notation. Maybe it was even actually Pascal, I don't remember exactly. I didn't question a non-standard notation that changed from author to author which looked like imperative programming language syntax and was understood like imperative code but aimed to represent intentions better than any actual programming language. Over the years I began to wonder about this pseudo-code idealism, how it became a common practice and why it is still used today? Any thoughts?
