CS-320 -- Programming Exercise 1

Create a program in Python that rewrites the following pseudocode segment using a loop structure:

       k = (j + 13) / 27
    loop:

if k > 10 then goto out k = k + 1
i = 3 * k – 1
goto loop

out: ...

Answer 1

In Python:

k = (j + 13) / 27
while k > 10:  #The While loop iterates till k is greater than 10
    k += 1
    i = 3 * k - 1

#Here the assignment of i is done outside of the while loop as assigning the value of i each time

#the iteration is done is pointless.

#outside of the loop a final value of k is obtained which is then used to find and then store value 'i'.
