This. I took the habit of writing very Python-like pseudocode while taking lecture notes, and having it run almost verbatim at home was a blast.

Honestly if other languages had the ability to use words like and, or, not, foreach <thing> in <thing> it would make learning to code that much more accessible. Even a language like C could do this. I understand that obviously you're not going to change something like a bit-wise (>>/<<) operator into something that flat says what it does (drop bit right/left), and I appreciate a good use of a ternary operator, you'd think it would be fairly trivial to de-codify some of the more basic operations.
