Programming Assignment Create Pseudocode or a Flow Chart

Hello, I would like to see some ideas on a nice flow or pseudocode. Easy assignment but time consuming. Usually my flow charts aren't very creative. I would like to see how others would design a flow or write pseudocode. I have zero experienc writing pseudocode and only have done flow charts. It would be nice to see an example of pseudocode. Thank you! Here is the program itself...

# function to compare a and b
def compare(a,b):

    # if a is greater than b , return 1
    if a > b:
        return 1

    # if a and b are equal, return 0
    elif a == b:
        return 0

    # if a less than b , return -1
    elif a < b :
        return -1

# testing
if __name__=="__main__":

    # calling the compare function with a and b
    print('compare(5,2) %d'%compare(5,2))
    print('compare(2,5) %d'%compare(2,5))
    print('compare(3,3) %d'%compare(3,3))

    # getting values for a and b
    a=int(input("Enter the value for a: "))
    b=int(input("Enter the value for b: "))

    print('compare(%d,%d) %d'%(a,b,compare(a,b)))

Explanation / Answer

I can say that Python code is close to a pseudocode. As you asked for a pseudocode here it is:

FUNCTION compare(a,b)
IF a > b THEN
RETURN 1
ELSE IF a == b THEN
RETURN 0
ELSE
RETURN -1

DECLARE INT a, b
READ a
READ b
result <- compare(a, b)
WRITE result

This is how the pseudocode looks for you code by following its standard notations.
