Abstract
To achieve program control flow representation that is relatively independent of any given programming language, schematic pseudocode (SPC) uses a perceptual notation system composed of schemata whose syntax rules are described by a grammar. Source code documentation is supported by operational comments, and translation into a target procedural language is fully automatic.Keywords
