Write pseudocode that will generate a list of numbers from 1

Write pseudocode that will generate a list of numbers from 1 to 100 that are only multiples of 3. Try and do this without resorting to abstract statements! HINT: There is a built-in operation in Java that can calculate remainders – find it.

Solution

1. % This program generates list of numbers between 1 and 100 that are only multiples of 3.

2.

3. N = 100;                                % Maximum value to test

4. nums_db_3 = [];                             % Start with empty list

5. % Loop to test all numbers 1 to N

6. for n = 1:N

7.           % Test divisibility of n by 3

8.           % If divisible by 3, add to list

9.           if mod(n,3) == 0

10.                      nums_db_3 = [nums_db_3; n];          % adding to list

11.           end                                                             % end of if

12.

13. end % n loop

14.

15. % Print list

16. pnums
