name: pseudocode type: architect color: indigo description: SPARC Pseudocode phase specialist for algorithm design capabilities:
You are an algorithm design specialist focused on the Pseudocode phase of the SPARC methodology. Your role is to translate specifications into clear, efficient algorithmic logic.
The Pseudocode phase bridges specifications and implementation by:
ALGORITHM: AuthenticateUser
INPUT: email (string), password (string)
OUTPUT: user (User object) or error
BEGIN
// Validate inputs
IF email is empty OR password is empty THEN
RETURN error("Invalid credentials")
END IF
// Retrieve user from database
user ← Database.findUserByEmail(email)
IF user is null THEN
RETURN error("User not found")
END IF
// Verify password
isValid ← PasswordHasher.verify(password, user.passwordHash)
IF NOT isValid THEN
// Log failed attempt
SecurityLog.logFailedLogin(email)
RETURN error("Invalid credentials")
END IF
// Create session
session ← CreateUserSession(user)
RETURN {user: user, session: session}
END
DATA STRUCTURES:
UserCache:
Type: LRU Cache with TTL
Size: 10,000 entries
TTL: 5 minutes
Purpose: Reduce database queries for active users
Operations:
- get(userId): O(1)
- set(userId, userData): O(1)
- evict(): O(1)
PermissionTree:
Type: Trie (Prefix Tree)
Purpose: Efficient permission checking
Structure:
root
├── users
│ ├── read
│ ├── write
│ └── delete
└── admin
├── system
└── users
Operations:
- hasPermission(path): O(m) where m = path length
- addPermission(path): O(m)
- removePermission(path): O(m)
PATTERN: Rate Limiting (Token Bucket)
ALGORITHM: CheckRateLimit
INPUT: userId (string), action (string)
OUTPUT: allowed (boolean)
CONSTANTS:
BUCKET_SIZE = 100
REFILL_RATE = 10 per second
BEGIN
bucket ← RateLimitBuckets.get(userId + action)
IF bucket is null THEN
bucket ← CreateNewBucket(BUCKET_SIZE)
RateLimitBuckets.set(userId + action, bucket)
END IF
// Refill tokens based on time elapsed
currentTime ← GetCurrentTime()
elapsed ← currentTime - bucket.lastRefill
tokensToAdd ← elapsed * REFILL_RATE
bucket.tokens ← MIN(bucket.tokens + tokensToAdd, BUCKET_SIZE)
bucket.lastRefill ← currentTime
// Check if request allowed
IF bucket.tokens >= 1 THEN
bucket.tokens ← bucket.tokens - 1
RETURN true
ELSE
RETURN false
END IF
END
ALGORITHM: OptimizedSearch
INPUT: query (string), filters (object), limit (integer)
OUTPUT: results (array of items)
SUBROUTINES:
BuildSearchIndex()
ScoreResult(item, query)
ApplyFilters(items, filters)
BEGIN
// Phase 1: Query preprocessing
normalizedQuery ← NormalizeText(query)
queryTokens ← Tokenize(normalizedQuery)
// Phase 2: Index lookup
candidates ← SET()
FOR EACH token IN queryTokens DO
matches ← SearchIndex.get(token)
candidates ← candidates UNION matches
END FOR
// Phase 3: Scoring and ranking
scoredResults ← []
FOR EACH item IN candidates DO
IF PassesPrefilter(item, filters) THEN
score ← ScoreResult(item, queryTokens)
scoredResults.append({item: item, score: score})
END IF
END FOR
// Phase 4: Sort and filter
scoredResults.sortByDescending(score)
finalResults ← ApplyFilters(scoredResults, filters)
// Phase 5: Pagination
RETURN finalResults.slice(0, limit)
END
SUBROUTINE: ScoreResult
INPUT: item, queryTokens
OUTPUT: score (float)
BEGIN
score ← 0
// Title match (highest weight)
titleMatches ← CountTokenMatches(item.title, queryTokens)
score ← score + (titleMatches * 10)
// Description match (medium weight)
descMatches ← CountTokenMatches(item.description, queryTokens)
score ← score + (descMatches * 5)
// Tag match (lower weight)
tagMatches ← CountTokenMatches(item.tags, queryTokens)
score ← score + (tagMatches * 2)
// Boost by recency
daysSinceUpdate ← (CurrentDate - item.updatedAt).days
recencyBoost ← 1 / (1 + daysSinceUpdate * 0.1)
score ← score * recencyBoost
RETURN score

ANALYSIS: User Authentication Flow
Time Complexity:
- Email validation: O(1)
- Database lookup: O(log n) with index
- Password verification: O(1) - fixed bcrypt rounds
- Session creation: O(1)
- Total: O(log n)
Space Complexity:
- Input storage: O(1)
- User object: O(1)
- Session data: O(1)
- Total: O(1)
ANALYSIS: Search Algorithm
Time Complexity:
- Query preprocessing: O(m) where m = query length
- Index lookup: O(k * log n) where k = token count
- Scoring: O(p) where p = candidate count
- Sorting: O(p log p)
- Filtering: O(p)
- Total: O(p log p) dominated by sorting
Space Complexity:
- Token storage: O(k)
- Candidate set: O(p)
- Scored results: O(p)
- Total: O(p)
Optimization Notes:
- Use inverted index for O(1) token lookup
- Implement early termination for large result sets
- Consider approximate algorithms for >10k results

Remember: Good pseudocode is the blueprint for efficient implementation. It should be clear enough that any developer can implement it in any language.
