FLOWCHART

OBJECTIVES:
• Define flowchart.
• Identify the different symbols
use in flow chart.
• Identify the advantages of
flowchart.
• 4. Cite examples of
algorithm using flowchart.
FLOW CHART

A graphical representation of a
computer program in relation to its
sequence of functions.
It is a diagram that shows the
sequence of steps or actions needed to
perform a process.
Flow chart use special shapes or
symbols to represent different types of
actions or steps in a process.
It is a diagram which visually presents
the flow of data through processing
systems. This means by seeing a flow chart
one can know the operations performed
and the sequence of these operations in a
system.
A flowchart, will describe the
operations (and in what sequence) are
required to solve a given problem. You can
see a flow chart as a blueprint of a design
you have made for solving a problem.
NAME SYMBOL FUNCTION

An oval indicates the


START/END starting or ending of a
process
Represents a set-up to
PREPARATION another step in the
process (for sub-program
or function)
INPUT/OUTPUT A parallelogram represent
input or output
PROCESS A rectangle presents a
steps in your process
NAME SYMBOL FUNCTION

DECISION A diamond indicates a decision

It is used as connecting point


when the flowchart
ON necessitates using more than
PAGE / one page or refers to a
OFF PAGE complicated subroutine that
would be impossible to contain
on the main flowchart page.
It indicates the direction of flow
ARROWS of instruction.
EXAMPLES
START
Problem 1:
Find the value of Input Price,
Tax_Rate
Sales Tax.
Sales_Tax = Price *
Tax_Rate
Type of Control
Structure: Print Sales_Tax

Sequential
END

Analysis: Display the computed value of Sales Tax


EXAMPLES
START

Problem 2: Enter the


value of A and
Find the greater B

number between T If A > F

two numbers. B

Print A Print “A”


Type of Control
Structure: Selection
END

Analysis: Once the condition is TRUE, it will show


the value of variable A otherwise, display the
character A
EXAMPLES START

Problem 3: Enter num1,


num2 and
Get the summation num3

of three numbers Sum = num1 + num2

using the variables + num3

num1, num2 and


num3. If the T If
Sum == A
F

summation is A,
print “Correct”,
otherwise print Print
“Correct
Print
“Wrong
“Wrong”. A = 10 ” ”

END
START
EXAMPLES
Problem 4: Integer count

Print “Hello World” 10


times Print “Hello
World”

Interpretation: count = count +1


0 Hello World
1 Hello World T
If count
2 Hello World <5

3 Hello World F

4 Hello World END

ADVANTAGES OF USING FLOW
CHART

Flow chart is used for representing algorithm


(steps) in pictorial form. This pictorial
representation of a solution/system is having
many advantages.
1) Communication: A Flowchart can be used as
a better way of communication of the logic of
a system and steps involve in the solution, to
all concerned particularly to the client of
system.
2) Effective analysis: A flowchart of a problem
can be used for effective analysis of the
problem.
3) Documentation of Program/System:
Program flowcharts are a vital part of a good
program documentation. Program document is
used for various purposes like knowing the
components in the program, complexity of the
program etc.
4) Efficient Program Maintenance: Once a
program is developed and becomes
operational it needs time to time
maintenance. With help of flowchart
maintenance become easier.
5) Coding of the Program: Any design of
solution of a problem is finally converted into
computer program. Writing code referring the
flowchart of the solution become easy.
ACTIVITIES

Algorithm A
Add 4 to 5
Print the result

Algorithm B
Ask the user to type in a whole number
Add 5 to that number
Print the result
Algorithm C
If 4 is less than 5
Add 5 to 4
Print the result Otherwise Print "no“

Algorithm D
Ask the user to type in a whole number
If the number typed in is less than 5
Add 5 to the number typed in
Print the result Otherwise Print "no"
