CompTIA ITF+ (FC0-U61) — Question 153

A programmer has been tasked to write the logic of a program without knowledge of the language to be used. Which of the following BEST describes how the programmer can accomplish this task?

Answer options

• A. Write a script.
• B. Write a narrative.
• C. Write pseudocode.
• D. Write a query.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as pseudocode allows the programmer to outline the logic of the program in a human-readable format without being tied to any specific programming syntax. Options A and D are incorrect because writing a script or a query requires knowledge of the specific language or database syntax, respectively. Option B, while useful for documentation, does not provide the structured logic needed for programming tasks.
