Write an algorithm and pseudocode to represent an airline reservation process. When a customer requests for a reservation, it should check whether a seat is available. If the seat is available, the message “seat available, should it be reserved?” should be displayed. Otherwise, the message “seat not available, your name is added to waiting list” should be printed.
The respond is to get the answer
Algorithm for Airline Reservation Process:
1. Initialize an array of seats to represent the available seats on the flight.
2. Accept customer name as input for reservation request.
3. Check if there are any available seats in the array. If the number of available seats is greater than zero, continue to step 4. Otherwise, go to step 6.
4. Prompt the customer with the message "Seat available, should it be reserved? (Y/N)"
5. If the customer's response is 'Y' or 'y', do the following:
5.1. Reserve a seat for the customer by marking it as occupied in the array of seats.
5.2. Display a message saying "Reservation successful. Seat reserved for customer."
5.3. Exit the algorithm.
6. If there are no available seats, do the following:
6.1. Add the customer's name to a waiting list.
6.2. Display a message saying "Seat not available. Your name has been added to the waiting list."
6.3. Exit the algorithm.
Pseudocode for Airline Reservation Process:
```
initialize an array of seats
function makeReservation(customerName):
if availableSeats > 0: // Check if there are any available seats
display "Seat available, should it be reserved? (Y/N)"
response = readInput()
if response == 'Y' or response == 'y':
reserveSeat(customerName) // call a function to reserve the seat
display "Reservation successful. Seat reserved for customer."
endIf
else:
addToWaitingList(customerName) // call a function to add customer to the waiting list
display "Seat not available. Your name has been added to the waiting list."
endIf
endFunction
```
Please note that the specific implementation of the reserveSeat() and addToWaitingList() functions will depend on the programming language you are using.
