Pseudocode

Pseudocode is a simplified, high-level version of programming language used for expressing algorithms or programming logic in human-readable format. Coursera's Pseudocode catalogue teaches you how to express complex algorithms succinctly, enhancing your problem-solving skills and providing a solid foundation for translating these algorithms into any programming language. You'll learn to draft and optimize pseudocode for data structures, sorting and searching algorithms, and software design patterns among others. As you develop expertise in visualizing and communicating programming logic through pseudocode, you prepare yourself for roles such as software engineer, systems analyst, data scientist or any position requiring strong analytical thinking and algorithmic understanding.
