Problem: Article: You can find it around your keyboard's numpad, or as a secondary function on another key. The Num Lock key is primarily used to lock the number keys on your numpad, but you can also use it to disable your Fn key. This will allow you to use the Num Lock button, and disable Fn. This will instantly disable all of your Fn key's functions. The Num Lock key may also look like Num ⇩ on some keyboards.
Summary: Find the Num Lock key on your keyboard. Hold down the Fn key on your keyboard. Press the NumLock key while holding down Fn.

Problem: Article: It can be tempting to use a word processor (e.g., Microsoft Word) or a similar program to create a rich-text document, but pseudocode needs as little formatting as possible to keep it simple. Dedicating a line or two to explaining the purpose of your code will help set up the rest of the document, and it will also save you the task of explaining the program's function to each person to whom you show the pseudocode. Each statement in your pseudocode should express just one action for the computer. In most cases, if the task list is properly drawn, then each task will correspond to one line of pseudocode. Consider writing out your task list, then translating that list into pseudocode, then gradually developing that pseudocode into actual, computer-readable code. Using white spaces between "blocks" of text will help keep different components of your pseudocode isolated, and indenting different pieces of each block will indicate that those pieces of pseudocode go under a less-indented section. For example, a section of pseudocode that discusses entering a number should all be in the same "block", while the next section (e.g., the section that discusses the output) should be in a different block. Depending on your pseudocode requirements or the environment in which you're publishing the pseudocode, you may need to capitalize commands that will remain in the actual code. For example, if you use "if" and "then" commands in your pseudocode, you might want to change them to read "IF" and "THEN" (e.g., "IF input number THEN output result"). Remember, you're writing about what the project will do, not summarizing the code itself. This is especially important if you're writing pseudocode to serve as a demonstration for a customer who doesn't know coding, or as a project for a beginner programmer. While the language you use to modify your pseudocode should be simple, you still need to keep each piece of your pseudocode in the order in which it needs to be executed. Everything that is happening in the process must be described completely. Pseudocode statements are close to simple English statements. Pseudocode does not typically use variables, but instead describes what the program should do with close-to-real-world objects such as account numbers, names, or transaction amounts. Even if there is no standard for pseudocode, it will be easier for other programmers to understand your steps if you use structures from existing (sequential) programming languages. Use terms like "if", "then", "while", "else", and "loop" the same way that you would in your preferred programming language. Consider the following structures:   if CONDITION then INSTRUCTION — This means that a given instruction will only be conducted if a given condition is true. "Instruction", in this case, means a step that the program will perform, while "condition" means that the data must meet a certain set of criteria before the program takes action.   while CONDITION do INSTRUCTION — This means that the instruction should be repeated again and again until the condition is no longer true.   do INSTRUCTION while CONDITION — This is very similar to "while CONDITION do INSTRUCTION". In the first case, the condition is checked before the instruction is conducted, but in the second case the instruction will be conducted first; thus, in the second case, INSTRUCTION will be conducted at least one time.  function NAME (ARGUMENTS): INSTRUCTION — This means that every time a certain name is used in the code, it is an abbreviation for a certain instruction. "Arguments" are lists of variables that you can use to clarify the instruction. If you have large sections of pseudocode that define other pieces of pseudocode within the same block, you may want to use brackets or other identifiers to keep everything contained.  Brackets—both standard (e.g., [code]) and curved (e.g., {code})—can help contain long segments of pseudocode. When coding, you can add comments by typing "//" on the left side of the comment (e.g., //This is a temporary step.). You can use this same method when writing pseudocode to leave notes that don't fit into the coding text. You should be able to answer the following questions by the end of the document:  Would this pseudocode be understood by someone who isn't familiar with the process? Is the pseudocode written in such a way that it will be easy to translated it into a computing language? Does the pseudocode describe the complete process without leaving anything out? Is every object name used in the pseudocode clearly understood by the target audience? If you find that a section of pseudocode needs elaboration or it doesn't explicitly outline a step that someone else might forget, go back and add the necessary information.
Summary:
Use a plain-text editor. Start by writing down the purpose of the process. Write only one statement per line. Use white space and indentation effectively. Capitalize key commands if necessary. Write using simple terminology. Keep your pseudocode in the proper order. Leave nothing to the imagination. Use standard programming structures. Organize your pseudocode sections. Double-check your pseudocode for readability and clarity.
