Terminal/Terminator Is Used To: Indicate The Beginning and Ending Points of A Flowchart. (Start/Stop: Begin/End

The document describes various symbols used in flowcharting including terminals/terminators, input/output, process, decision, on-page/off-page connectors, and flowlines. It provides examples of flowcharts that compute mathematical operations on values, determine if a number is positive or negative, find the larger of two numbers, and display numbers in sequences.

 Terminal/Terminator is used to

indicate the beginning and


ending points of a flowchart.
(Start/Stop: Begin/End)

 Input/Output is used to
indicate where data are entered
into the flowchart and also
where results are printed.
 Process is used to specify
some action to be taken. An
arithmetic or replacement
operation might be specified.

 Decision is used to indicate a


decision point. A comparison
may be made or a question may
be asked. Two flowlines
emanate from this shape
indicating a "Yes" or a "No".
Whatever the answer is, the
appropriate flowline is followed

to the next symbol.
 On-page Connector is used when a
flowline has to be broken because of space
limitations on the same page. The shape
contains a single character (alphanumeric)
and the sequence continues with another
shape, which contains the same character.

 Off-page Connector is used when a


lowline has to be broken because of
page limitations and to be continued
on the next page. The shape contains a
single character (alphanumeric) and
the sequence continues with another
shape, which contains the same
character.
 Flowlines or more specifically
arrow lines, determine the flow
of information through the
chart, thus, the sequencing of
information

 Note: Flowcharting symbols and techniques can vary from one book to another, or from
one software package to another
 Given three numbers A,B,C, draw a flowchart that computes and
prints out the sum, the average and the product of these values

START  = equal SIGN - assignment


operator

A,B,C

SUM=A+B+C

Ave=Sum/3

Prod=A*B*C

Sum, Ave,
Prod END
 Given a number N, draw a flowchart that determines if the
value is positive or negative
START

T/Y
N>=O Val = “Positive”

F/N
Val=“Negative”

Val

END
 Given two numbers, draw a flowchart that determines
and displays the larger value
START

X,Y

T/Y
X>Y Larger= X

F/N
Larger= Y

Larger

END
 Display numbers from 1 to 10

START

NUM=1

IF
F/N
NUM<=10 END

T/Y
LOOP NUM

NUM=NUM+1
 Display odd numbers from 1 to 10
 1,3,5,7,9
START

NUM=1

IF
F/N
NUM<=10 END

T/Y
LOOP NUM

NUM=NUM+2
 Display even numbers from 1 to 10
 2,4,6,8,10
START

NUM=2

IF
F/N
NUM<=10 END

T/Y
LOOP NUM

NUM=NUM+2
