The feedback on my pseudo code was:
"Your pseudocode for opening the file and validating its format is clear and identifies key error conditions like missing files and invalid lines. However, the logic for handling invalid lines could be enhanced by skipping those lines instead of exiting the program entirely, as this would allow processing to continue for other valid lines."
"You effectively outlined how to create and populate a course object with the provided course information, including prerequisites. To improve, ensure that the pseudocode specifies handling edge cases, such as a course with no prerequisites eg validating and setting an empty list or array
"The search and print functionality is welldetailed and follows a structured traversal of the tree to locate and display course information. One area for improvement is ensuring the search logic explicitly handles cases where the course is not found by traversing the entire tree before printing an error."
Can you please help me adjust it to accommodate this feedback?
Pseudocode for Loading Data from File:
OPEN file at directory;
IF file is not found
PRINT "Error: File not found";
EXIT program;
For each line in file:
IF FUNCTION ValidLine
PROCEDURE DelimitedLine;
ELSE
PRINT "Error: Invalid line format";
CLOSE file;
Function ValidLine:
VALIDATE if the line has at least two parameters;
tokens Splitline;
IF Lengthtokens
RETURN True;
ELSE
RETURN false;
Procedure DelimitedLine:
EXTRACT course information from line;
tokens Splitline;
courseNumber tokens;
name tokens;
prerequisites tokens: ;
For each prerequisite in prerequisites:
IF not FUNCTION CourseExists
PRINT "Error: Prerequisite not valid for courseNumber;
EXIT program;
CREATE course object and store in tree data structure;
course new CoursecourseDatacourseNumber, courseData.name, courseData.prerequisites;
ADD course to Tree Data Structure with course as node;
Function CourseExists:
VALIDATE if courseNumber exists in the tree;
For each node in courseTree:
IF course.courseNumber courseNumber
RETURN True;
ELSE
RETURN False;
Pseudocode for Creating Course Objects and Storing in Tree:
CREATE a new course object;
newCourse new CourseObject;
SET instance variables with data;
newCourse.courseNumber courseNumber;
newCourse.courseName name;
newCourse.prerequisites prerequisites;
RETURN newCourse;
IF root null
Root newCourse;
ELSE
ADD newCourse as node to Tree Data Structure;
Pseudocode for Searching and Printing Course Information:
For each node in courseTree:
WHILE not at the last line
IF course.courseNumber courseNumber
PRINT "Course Number: course.courseNumber;
PRINT "Course Name: course.name;
PRINT "Prerequisites: course.prerequisites;
RETURN;
ELSE
PRINT "Error: Course not found"
