symbol.
5. Find the outputs of the following algorithms.

1
Express following algorithms using:

a) Using pseudo code


b) Using flowchart
6. Write an algorithm that reads two numbers from a keyboard and prints the sum.
7. Write an algorithm that asks a user for two numbers and divide the first by second and returns
the result. Do not perform the division if the second number is zero, but display “
ERROR.DIVISION BY ZERO”.
8. Develop an algorithm to print all prime numbers between 1 and num where num is an integer
value less than or equal to 1000.You can use either pseudo code or flow chart.

10. Develop an algorithm that displays the sum of the first N numbers odd numbers where N is
an integer to be read from the keyboard.

11. An algorithm that returns the Celsius value for a given temperature measured in Fahrenheit.
(For example, the input 68 would output 20 use the conversion formula 5(F-32) = 9C.
12. An algorithm that converts a given number of inches to centimeters. (1 inch = 2.54 cm).
13. Determine whether an input is number is prime or not.
14. An algorithm inputs accepts two integers and then prints the sum, difference, product,
quotient, and remainder of two integers
15. Write an algorithm that accepts the constants of the quadratic equation and calculate the root
of the equation.
16. An algorithm calculates the factorial of any positive number n.
17. An algorithm calculates the sum of the first n factorials.
Sum = 1!+ 2!+ 3!+…. (N-1)!+N!
18. An algorithm Calculate the first n Fibonacci Series.
N.B. A Fibonacci sequence is a series whose first and second series is one and subsequent
series element is determined by the sum of the preceding two series elements.
Partial list of the series: 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34……….
In general F1= F2=1
Fn=Fn-1 + Fn-2 for n >2

7.3 54321012345
20. An algorithm reads in n real quantities and displays their sum and average.

21. An algorithm for raising a number n to a power p . Note raising a number n to a power p is
the same as multiplying n by itself p times.
22. An algorithm to print all prime numbers between 1 and num where num is an integer value
less than or equal to 1000.
23. Write the algorithm which computes N! Using flow chart.
Note n! =n*n-1*n-2*…2*1

27. Express a given number of seconds in terms of hours, minutes and seconds.

Hint:

• Get the number of seconds from the user.


• Calculate the number of hours: total number of seconds / 3600.
• Calculate the remaining seconds: total number of seconds % 3600.
• Calculate the number of minutes: remaining seconds / 60.
• Calculate the number of seconds: remaining seconds % 60.
• Output the number of hours, minutes and seconds to the user.
