In order to execute a program the computer must first load a file from its backing store into its internal memory. The control unit then picks each instruction in turn, passing any mathematical or logical statements over to the ALU until the entire sequence of instructions is completed.
Algorithm
Input first number
Input second number
Input third number
Add first, second and third numbers : store as Total
Divide Total/3 : store as Average
Display Total and Average
Pseudocode
Input First
Input Second
Input Third
Total=First+Second+Third
