It's a type of number that can have lots of numbers after the decimal point. I don't know the exact figure though.

So how do I convert that into Pseudo Code?

@Ara: Okay, here's one just for you. What's 1 + 1?

No idea, man. I'm an English major.

Well, you wouldn't, you just say that you need X value and how you get it (from the user or calculated by the code etc).

Alright, I'll figure something out. Luckily, due to a combination of paying attention, and actually being taught how to Psuedo Code (unlike last year), it's actually quite easy.

Hey man, I was writing smut at 6:30 this morning. It's a day for excitement.

I just noticed you've quoted me in your signature. I totally just gained some Cool Points. Too bad my Classy Score is so frickin' low.

'Cool Points'? I think they've just dropped now. :laugh:

Heh. Good luck then. You don't need to include any data types (like ints or doubles) or things like public/private though. Just calculations, loops, if statements, that sort of thing.

Sorry Aramant. You don't get Cool points when Slade quotes you -you get a salutary lesson

!!!:speech:

What? So I don't have to declare ints? And say whether they are private or public?:speech:

Oh well. My Cool Score is still pretty high. It seems to work out that whenever my Cool Score goes up, my Classy Score goes down. Way, way down.

Nope, I've never had to. Not unless Aus has some wacky version of Pseudocode.

You mention what the value is (say CamelDistance or whatever but not if it's an int or anything like that).
Pseudocode is supposed to be a general language which can be padded out by any other programming language, that's why it focuses on what a program does, rather than what makes it, what checkboxes ae there, what GUI it is etc.
You'd probably only need to write a piece of Pseudocode for your main class (unless your applet one does any calculations).

@Slade, who gave you the power to take away my points?!

To be fair, you've probably lost Classy Points by quoting me.

It's not like you had many Cool Points to begin with.

!

You mean to tell me I've spent the last 30 minutes doing something, when it could have easily been 5 minutes? I want 25 minutes of my life back.

But I've got a fair few strings, do I PseudoCode them?

Aside from the sushi (I'm Irish, meat and potatoes is the way to go!), I remember those days. Good days...the kind you get confused the next morning and think to yourself "What in the world possessed that girl to...?!"

I don't even think things like that anymore. The most ridiculous things happen to me on a daily basis, and I just take them all in stride. Like the time I was almost raped. Things stand out no more for me beyond the capacity they have to make a good story.

Well, thank you.

@DJV, when the user needs to input a value, make sure you have that next to READ (that might then be assigned to an int, though it wouldn't be put in the code), and strings or anyting that is outputted to the user needs to get written down too, just don't mention that it's a drawString etc.
