Task 4
An amusement park operates a smartcard system for visitors. When they enter the park, a
visitor chooses the amount they wish to put on their card. Rides cost differing amounts, and to
get through a barrier for a particular ride, the visitor inserts their card. The balance on the card
is checked. If there is enough money on the card, the balance is updated and displayed and the
barrier opens. If there is not enough money left on the card, the current balance is displayed
with a message “Not enough for this ride – need to top up”.

Complete the flowchart for the barriers in the amusement park.

Task 5
For each of the flowcharts in tasks 1-4, identify where sequence, selection and iteration have
been used. Note that some of the flowcharts do not use all three of these.
