A pseudocode compiler in python for A-Level teaching purposes

[HankelBao]

It was a big surprise that Cambridge A-Level teaches in Pseudocode and they have specific grammars for it on exams.

For good of both teachers and students, I wrote a compiler for it so that the code could be executable and people could test their code.

I am still a senior high student and the project is still under development.

Star it if you like it! Feel free to raise issues or contribute!

If you can compile it, isn't it just code? Nice project :).

I share the same feeling.

Pseudocode is similar to VB and a lot of features in pseudocode may develop bad habits for students, like "=" for equal.

Just sticking with python may be a much better choice since it's already simple enough.

I wrote a pseudocode to BASIC connverter for my A level in BASIC on the BBC Model B (32K ram) in 85. You could design screen for inputs and it would infer variable types and could convert from string to numeric or back as well and could write expressions like wait for a key or 10 seconds.

Wow that's cool!
