Do you want me to write fizzbuzz in proper syntax in some language I have on my resume and 'can do' but don't actually do every day without the help of an IDE? Forget it.

Can I write pseudo code that doesn't compile, is an amalgamation of various languages and probably understandable by anyone that can code even though there's probably no language w/ that syntax out there but it get the idea across perfectly? Sure!

    foreach (number in numbersYouWantMeToFizzBuzz) {
        if(number MOD 15 eq 0) print fizzbuzz
        else if(number MOD 3 eq 0) print fizz
        else if(number MOD 5 eq 0) print buzz
        else print number
    }
Don't have the {}? Who cares, you might be a python guy. Don't have the indentation? Meh you pass but my next question will be about formatting and what you think about applying a standard code style (and fail PRs automatically if it doesn't etc). You used % because your language uses that for MOD? Sure.
