Developing Flowcharts

The document discusses developing flowcharts and provides several examples of flowcharts for different problems. The key steps in developing a flowchart are: defining the problem, identifying the steps to solve it, determining input/output parameters, getting expected data values, and determining computations and decisions. Examples include flowcharts for adding numbers, finding the greater of two numbers, converting Celsius to Fahrenheit, getting marks for subjects and declaring pass/fail results, and finding the sum of the first N numbers. The last part discusses the structure of a simple C program with comments.

Developing Flowcharts

In developing the flowcharts following points have to be considered:


• Defining the problem.
• Identify the various steps required to form a solution.
• Determine the required input and output parameters.
• Get expected input data values and output result.
• Determine the various computations and decisions involved.

Example: To prepare a flowchart to add two numbers. The steps are:


1. Start.
2. Get two numbers N1 and N2.
3. Add them.
4. Print the result.
5. Stop.

Example: To prepare a flowchart to determine the greater of two numbers. Here we use the
decision symbol. We also combine the two reads for numbers A and B in one box.

The steps are:


1. Start
2. Get two number A and B.
3. If A > B then print A else print B.
4. Stop.
Example : Flowchart for a program that converts temperature in degrees Celsius to degrees
Fahrenheit.

First let us write the steps involved in this computation technique.


1. Start.
2. Create memvars F and C (for temperature in Fahrenheit and Celsius).
3. Read degrees Celsius into C.
4. Compute the degrees Fahrenheit into F.
5. Print result (F).
6. Stop.
Example: Flowchart to get marks for 3 subjects and declare the result. If the marks >= 35 in all
the subjects the student passes else fails.
The steps involved in this process are:
1. Start.
2. Create memvars m1, m2, m3.
3. Read marks of three subjects m1, m2, m3.
4. If m1 >= 35 goto step 5 else goto step 7
5. If m2 >= 35 goto step 6 else goto step 7
6. If m3 >= 35 print Pass. Goto step 8
7. Print fail
8. Stop
Example: To find the sum of first N numbers. This example illustrates the use of a loop for a
specific number of times.
The steps are:
1. Start
2. Create memvars S , N, I
3. Read N
4. Set S (sum) to 0
5. Set counter (I) to 1.
6. S = S + I
7. Increment I by 1.
8. Check if I is less than or equal to N. If no, go to step 6.
Structure of a simple Program in C

#include<stdio.h> //inclusion of header file


#include<conio.h>
int add( int,int); //function declaration or prototype
void main() //main function
{
int a, b, c; //Declaration of variable
printf("enter the vale of a \n");
scanf("%d", &a);
printf("enter the vale of b \n");
scanf("%d", &b);
c=add(a,b); //function call
printf("sum of %d and %d is %d",a,b,c);
getch();
}
int add( int a, int b) //function definition
{
int c;
c=a+b;
return c;
}
