what about learning some basics?

A very good way to learn App Inventor is to read the free Inventor's Manual here in the AI2 free online eBook App Inventor 2 Book: Create Your Own Android Apps ... the links are at the bottom of the Web page. The book 'teaches' users how to program with AI2 blocks.
There is a free programming course here Course In A Box and the aia files for the projects in the book are here: App Inventor 2 Book: Create Your Own Android Apps
How to do a lot of basic things with App Inventor are described here: How do you...? .

Also do the tutorials Our Tutorials! to learn the basics of App Inventor, then try something and follow the Top 5 Tips: How to learn App Inventor

@Morfeyh

unfortunately not, as already explained, the pseudo code is wrong...
I already described what needs to be done...

sorry; I will not provide the blocks for your project... I think, cheating is not the way to go for your homework... you first should learn the basics and then follow the suggestions... yes, you can do it!
