Answer:
The purpose of the algorithm is to print the least digit among a total of 15 digita
Explanation:
input somenum
Repeat the following steps for 14 times
input variable1
if variable1 < somenum then
somenum = variable1
print somenum
On line 1, the algorithm takes an input through variable1
An iteration is started on line 2 and ends on line 6
Line 3,4,5 re performed repeatedly;
On line 3, the algorithm accepts another input through somenum and it keep accepting it till the end of the iteration.
On line 4, the algorithm tests if variable1 is lesser than somenum.
If yes, line 5 is executed and the value of variable1 is assigned to somenum
Else, line 5 is skipped; the iteration moves to line 3 as long as the condition is still valid.
At the end of the iteration, the least value stored in somenum is printed through
