The research proposed suggest that breast-fed babies are more intelligent than formula-fed babies. The independent variable is if a child was breast-fed or not. The dependent variable is the child’s IQ based on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS).

PSEUDOCODE STANDARD Example Pseudocode is a kind of structured english for describing algorithms. It allows the designer to focus on the logic of the algorithm without being distracted by details of language syntax. At the same time‚ the pseudocode needs to be complete. It describe the entire logic of the algorithm so that implementation becomes a rote mechanical task of translating line by line into source code. In general the vocabulary used in the pseudocode should be the vocabulary of
