The question as text
This pseudocode algorithm is intended to input a first name from a user and search for it in a two‑dimensional (2D) array. If the name is found, the algorithm outputs all the remaining details for that name. The algorithm will continue to allow other names to be entered for searching, until the user input stops it. 01 DECLARE Contacts : ARRAY[1:500, 1:4] OF REAL 02 DECLARE Row : INTEGER 03 DECLARE Column : INTEGER 04 DECLARE Continue : BOOLEAN 05 DECLARE Stop : BOOLEAN 06 DECLARE FirstName : STRING 07 Continue TRUE 08 Stop FALSE 09 WHILE Continue 10 Row 1 11 OUTPUT "Enter a first name " 12 OUTPUT FirstName 13 REPEAT 14 IF Contacts[Row, 1] = FirstName 15 THEN 16 FOR Column 1 TO 4 17 OUTPUT Contacts[Row, 1] 18 NEXT Column 19 Stop TRUE 20 ELSE 21 Row Row + 1 22 ENDIF 23 NEXT Stop OR Row > 500 24 OUTPUT "Search for another name? (Y or N)" 25 INPUT Answer 26 IF Answer = 'N' OR Answer = 'n' 27 THEN 28 Continue TRUE 29 ENDIF 30 ENDWHILE
