Programmable Logic Controller (PLC):

  • Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) is a specialized computer used in industrial segments to control machines and process.
  • PLC is programmable that consists of a set of instructions which resembles the controlling functions needed to perform specific tasks.
  • The function of PLC is similar to that of a relay and hence, in an industrial segment a relay is greatly replaced by a suitable PLC.
  • When compared to general Personal Computer (PC), a PLC is available in small and tiny sizes.
  • The basic architecture of a PLC consists of an input-output interface module and a small Central Processing Unit (CPU) that run by control programming language.

I need help writing pseudocode for this function. The following pseudocode statement calls a function named half, which returns a value that is half that of the argument. (Assume both the result and number variables are Real.) Set result = half(number)
Need help converting my pseudocode to python, AND have a flowchart showing everything!The code:Main Module    Call InputModuleEnd Main Module Module InputModule    // This module gets input from the user    Declare Principal, AnnualRate, Years as Float     Output "Enter the Principal amount (P): "    Input Principal     Output "Enter the Annual Interest Rate (in percentage, e.g., 5 for 5%): "    Input AnnualRate     Output "Enter the number of Years to repay the loan: "    Input Years     Call DisplayPayment(Principal, AnnualRate, Years)End Module Module DisplayPayment(Principal, AnnualRate, Years)    // This module calculates and displays the monthly payment    Declare R, N as Float    Declare MonthlyPayment as Float    Declare PowerFactor as Float  // second local variable     // Calculate monthly interest rate R and number of months N    Set R = (AnnualRate / 100) / 12    Set N = Years * 12     // Calculate PowerFactor = (1 + R)^N    Set PowerFactor = (1 + R) ^ N     // Calculate…
Whats wrong with my pseudocode? Where did I make an error?Code:           Module main()                 Declare Real mileage                 Call getMileage()                 Display “You’ve drive a total of “, mileage, “ miles            End Module                       Module getMilage()                Display “Enter your mileage: “                 Input mileage            End Module
