Create A Pseudocode Using If Instruction Containing A Compound Conditi

Create a pseudocode using if instruction containing a compound condition that will satisfy the following: When STATE is equal to TX and CITY is Dallas, display "This person is a Dallas Texan." Otherwise, when state is equal to NY and city is New York, display "This person is a New Yorker." In all other cases display, "This person is non-Dallas Texan and non-New Yorker." Note: The above text is not in a pseudocode format. You need to use the IF ELSE ENDIF clause in a pseudocode format with appropriate relational and logical operators.

Paper For Above instruction

Developing pseudocode to handle multiple conditional statements is essential in programming, especially when decisions depend on various combinations of variables. In this case, the pseudocode must evaluate two variables, STATE and CITY, and display corresponding messages based on their values, using compound conditions with logical conjunctions. This exercise demonstrates the importance of logical operators like AND (&&), and the structure of conditional statements using IF, ELSE IF, and ENDIF constructs.

The pseudocode begins by defining the variables STATE and CITY. It then checks whether the STATE is "TX" and CITY is "Dallas." If both conditions are true, it displays "This person is a Dallas Texan." If not, it proceeds to an ELSE IF clause to verify if STATE is "NY" and CITY is "New York." If this condition holds, it displays "This person is a New Yorker." If neither condition is satisfied, the ELSE clause executes, displaying "This person is non-Dallas Texan and non-New Yorker."

Here's the specific pseudocode illustrating this logic:

START


INPUT STATE


INPUT CITY


IF (STATE = "TX") AND (CITY = "Dallas") THEN


DISPLAY "This person is a Dallas Texan."


ELSE IF (STATE = "NY") AND (CITY = "New York") THEN


DISPLAY "This person is a New Yorker."


ELSE


DISPLAY "This person is non-Dallas Texan and non-New Yorker."


ENDIF


END

This pseudocode effectively captures the compound conditions using logical AND, ensuring that both criteria for each case are met before displaying specific messages. The structure clearly separates different cases with IF, ELSE IF, and ELSE, which enhances readability and logical flow. This approach is fundamental in programming for handling multiple decision-making scenarios based on variable conditions.
