1. What problems do you see in this logic?

2. Show corrected pseudocode to fix the problems.

3. Is there another way the code can be corrected and still have the same outcome? If so, please describe.

4. Implement your pseudocode in either Raptor or VBA. (submit this file)

5. Does it work? You must test your code before submitting and indicate if the program functions according to the assignment description. Explain.
