Question

Do the necessary planning (IPO) and write an algorithm in pseudo code for the following:

1. Write an algorithm to allow users to enter a quantity of numbers until a negative number is entered. Then display the highest and lowest number entered.

1.1 Use a while-loop to determine the answer.

Answer 1

IPO

Algorithm:


Start
   Declare varaible integer number = 1	
   Declare varaible integer highest = -100000
   Declare varaible integer lowest = 100000 
   while number>=0
	Read number
        if number>=0 then
	   if number> highest then
	        highest = number
	    if number < lowest then
		lowest = number
	    end if
	end if
    Display the highest number 
    Display the lowest number
