Question

I need to correct the following two pseudo code assignments, and I have trouble finding more mistakes in the code. Can anyone help me find them?

// Cooper College maintains a master file of students and credits
// earned. Each semester the master is updated with a transaction
// file that contains credits earned during the semester.
// Each file is sorted in Student ID number order.
