Algorithm Constructs

Algorithm Constructs

1. Assignment

   • Storing a value in a variable
     • playerName = user Input

2. Iteration

   • For Loop
     • Repeats a section of code for a given number of times
       • For 10 times
   • While Loop
     • Repeats a section of code if a given condition is true or false
       • IF damage is >=10 OUTPUT "Congratulations"

3. Sequence

   • Instructions processed one after another
     • DECLARE then SET then OUTPUT

4. Modularisation

   • Assigning a function of code if a function is required to be played multiple times
     • FUNCTION
   • Minimises lines of code and repetitive code

5. Selection and Condition

   • Tells the code to perform a specific function based on a condition and whether that condition is true or false.
     • IF damage is <10 print "Unfortunately you have not made it to round two"
