Answer to Question #165068 in Algorithms for Jean Claude

Question

It is late at night, and you decide to get a glass of milk before bed. Try to write

pseudocode describing the process of going to the kitchen and getting the milk. Be

very specific and make sure you have all actions in the correct sequence. For example,

remember you must open the refrigerator door before you reach in to retrieve the milk

container. What if there is no glass in the cupboard? Did you check whether the glass

was right side up before you started pouring? Now consider how many small

decisions you make every day, and consider how involved it would be to write a

program to instruct a robot to do the things you do in a day!
