If you feel uncomfortable with abusing Typst’s lists like we did on the previous page, you can also use the #pseudocode function directly:

#pseudocode(
[do something],
[do something else],
[*while* still something to do],
indent(
[do even more],
[*if* not done yet *then*],
indent(
[wait a bit],
[resume working],
),
[*else*],
indent(
[go home],
),
[*end*],
),
[*end*],
)

This is equivalent to the first example. Note that each line is given as one content argument and you indent a block by using the indent function.

This approach has the advantage that you do not rely on significant whitespace and code formatters can automatically correctly indent your Typst code.
