Everyone understands it implies that everyone understands it, regardless of background or knowledge or whether they know programming or not.

  Only to the extremely pedantic.

    Not pedant at all, I'm sure parent meant exactly what they said.

      No reasonable person here would regard "everyone" to include e.g. Sally in accounting. Psuedo code is obviously for people who write code.
