How to Write a Simple Algorithm Using Pseudocode | Example Three

As a sales manager of a certain company, write an algorithm that will request for the length, width and unit cost per square of a plot, the algorithm will calculate and display the cost of the plot.

Premise:

Just like example one, after requested for the length and width, the algorithm will also request for the unit cost per square of the plot, it is this unit cost together with the area that will be use to calculate the cost of the plot as indicated in step 2.2.

Solution:

Major Steps
1. Request Data
2. Calculate cost
3. Display cost
Stepwise Refinement
1. Request Data
    1.1 Request length
    1.2 Request width
    1.3 Request unit cost
2. Calculate cost
    2.1 Area = length * width
    2.2 cost = Area * unit cost
3. Display cost
