This is what the console shows when the example runs.

VERDADERO

Good to know

<> and != mean the same thing; use the one your class uses.

In a flowchart

This is how it appears in a flowchart, with the same shapes Codoritmo draws.

respuesta <> 0SíNo
Used inside a condition. It has no shape of its own; it's used inside a condition. Flowchart: a decision diamond with the condition "respuesta <> 0"; the Sí (yes) exit continues down and the No exit turns right.
Draw the flowchart of your own algorithm →

Template

The general form. Replace what's inside < > with your own data.
