Homework 4 Flowcharts

Unit 6 Algorithms

Name:Daniel.................................................................. Class:................... Mark:................

1. Draw a flowchart for a program which asks the user to enter a password. If the user enters
“HiThere!” then print “Welcome”, and then end the program.
If they enter a different password, print “Wrong password” and end the program. [4]

Start

input password

if password N if password

“Hi there” is different

Print “welcome”

Print “wrong

Password”

end

2. An algorithm is to be written which calculates the average of a set of student marks


entered. If -1 is entered, then the program ends. The flowchart on the next page describes
the steps in the algorithm. However, most of the stages have been omitted.

Homework 4 Flowcharts
Unit 6 Algorithms

(a) Complete the flowchart, using the item number from the list of
items given below. [6]

Item number Item description


1 Is mark = -1?
2 INPUT "Enter next mark"
3 OUTPUT "No marks entered"
4 INPUT mark
5 count = count + 1
6 OUTPUT average
7 total = 0
8 Is count = 0?
9 total = total + mark
10 average = total / count

(b) State the three types of basic programming constructs that have been used in the
algorithm. [3]

Count =

Coiunt +1

Is mark -1 is count output avaverage

Total = 0 count = count + 1

Count = Count +1 ouput “no marks

entered

Output “no marks

Entered

Input “enter

Mark again
