Unlike when writing in a programming language, there are no set rules that must be followed when writing pseudocode. What do you think are some good guidelines to follow when writing pseudocode? Why are these guidelines important?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Pseudocode may not have a set number of rules of guidelines but there are still some habits that should be followed. This includes having only one statement per line and add the END keyword to loops. Both of these rules/habits will drastically increase the readability of the pseudocode and allow you to know exactly where a certain loop starts and ends. Since loops can become difficult to read if they have a lot of code within them. Another good guideline to keep in mind is to simplify the code as much as possible do not add unnecessary pseudocode if it is not absolutely needed.
