A chocolate company has a new candy bar in the shape of a prism whose base is a 1-inch equilateral triangle and whose sides are rectangles that measure 1 inch by 2 inches. These prisms will be packed in a box that has a regular hexagonal base with 2-inch edges, and rectangular sides that are 6 inches tall.
Write a pseudocode for a program that calculates the number of candy bars that fit into such a box.
Source code and comments: Write a C code that calculates the number of candy bars that fit in such a box.
Correctness: How many candy bars fit in such a box?
Teacher briefing:
Pseudocode is a simpler version of program code written in plain English before it is converted to program source code. It is a simplest way of writing a program code without following strict syntax (programming language grammar rules). Simply, Pseudocode is a set of instruction that will be translated to a different types of program code.
When you write the pseudocode, you must include the following five steps to get full point.
Where is the program’s starting point? start
Inputs: what are your inputs?
Processing: what is that process you need to follow to come up with a solution
Outputs: what do you expect as an output?
At what point the program stops? End
Example: a pseudocode for a program that adds two numbers, Num1 and Num2 to get Sum.
Start
Inputs: Num1 and Num2 Processing: Sum = Num1 + Num2 Output: Sum
End
