Practical Examples (OCR Pseudocode & Python)
Example 1: Grade Calculator
OCR Pseudocode:
score = input("Enter score: ")
if score >= 70 then
grade = "A"
elseif score >= 60 then
grade = "B"
elseif score >= 50 then
grade = "C"
elseif score >= 40 then
grade = "D"
else
grade = "U"
endif
print("Grade: " + grade)
Python Equivalent:
score = int(input("Enter score: "))
if score >= 70:
grade = "A"
elif score >= 60:
grade = "B"
elif score >= 50:
grade = "C"
elif score >= 40:
grade = "D"
else:
grade = "U"
print("Grade:", grade)
Example 2: Login Validation
username = input("Username: ")
password = input("Password: ")
if username == "admin" AND password == "secret123" then
print("Access granted")
loggedIn = true
else
print("Access denied")
loggedIn = false
endif
