And for starting they will even use a package that predeclares
variables I, J, K, L, M as integers, X, Y, Z as reals, etc. That's my
approach anyway, logic first, types later. They just include the
package and voila, by magic, all the variables in the pseudocode are
there for usage in the same way. Later I will explain this magic, by
looking inside the package, and then they will redo their programs
sans that package.
