It probably depends on when you were taught to code, and what language you learned on/most familiar with.

This is exactly how I learned to write psudo code in the 80's.... We were also diagramming our code back then, with a pencil and paper, using a template.

Kind of like with this thing.

Now I usually do a bit of a hybrid, but it also depends on how complicated the programs are. I'll do some python/comment-psudo-code.

It doesn't really matter what the process is, as long as it works for you, and doesn't interfere with collaborating with anyone you work with.
