Flowchart in Programming: Related Articles

Flowcharts are diagrams that represent algorithms and the flow of processes in a program. They use standard symbols like rectangles, diamonds, and arrows to visually depict input, output, decisions, and the steps in a process. Flowcharts are helpful for writing programs, explaining programs to others, and analyzing and debugging complex programs. While useful, drawing flowcharts can become complicated for large programs so they are sometimes omitted.

Flowchart is a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm. Flowchart are very helpful in writing


program and explaining program to others.

Symbols Used In Flowchart

Different symbols are used for different states in flowchart, For example: Input/Output and decision
making has different symbols. The table below describes all the symbols that are used in making
flowchart

Examples of flowcharts in programming

Draw a flowchart to add two numbers entered by user.

Draw flowchart to find the largest among three different numbers entered by user.

Draw a flowchart to find all the roots of a quadratic equation ax2+bx+c=0

Draw a flowchart to find the Fibonacci series till term1000.

Though, flowchart are useful in efficient coding, debugging and analysis of a program, drawing
flowchart in very complicated in case of complex programs and often ignored.
