Yea that's not explained better than a math teach. They just swapped notation common in math, for notation common in one specific programming language. it's only easier for the audience who happens to be familiar with programming in general, and that language in particular.
not to resurrect a dead thread but yeah anyone remotely into computer science should be able to read pseudo code notation. it being variable in how people write it is part of what makes it a nice tool. this code could work in many contexts in many languages. it’s pretty precise for pseudo code, even.
