Answer

Step 1: Step 2: Step 3: Step 4: Step 5: Step 6: Step 7: Step 8: Step 9: Start Initialize sum and count to zero Examine top card. If it says “end of data” proceed to step 9; otherwise, proceed to next step. Add value from top card to sum. Increase count by 1. Discard top card Return to Step 3. Is the count greater than zero? If yes, proceed to step 10. If no, proceed to step 11. Step 10: Calculate average = sum/count Step 11: End
