Explanation:

Pseudocode is a high - level description of a program's logic used in the planning phase of programming. It is not a pictorial representation (flowcharts are), it is more flexible than source code as it doesn't adhere to strict syntax rules of a particular programming language, and it doesn't provide more detail than source code. It is a planning tool.
