Topic Flowgorithm
Flowgorithm
Objective
 Functions
Designing a Function
Go to function manager:

A function manager window will pop up:


Click on Add Buton

Type Function name

Click on ok
Click on Done

Check the
function menu

Design the function:


Call the function:

Parameters of a function:
Edit the add() function:
Go to function manager, select the function and click on the edit button
Click on add button to add parameters:

Redefine the function:

Returning the value from a function:


Edit the add() function and select the return type:
Now the calling of the function must be done in the assign or output box to see
the result on the console:
Lab task
Pattern Printing
Task 1: Even or Odd
Draw a flowchart to check if a number is even or odd. Design a function called
check_even_odd and call it in the main flowchart.

Task 2: Calculate Factorial


Draw a flowchart to calculate the factorial of a number. Implement a function
calculate_factorial() that uses a loop to compute the result.

Task 3: Prime Number


Draw a flowchart to check if a number is prime or not. Design a function named isprime().

Sample Input/Output:
Enter a number: 4 [Press Enter]
4 is not a prime number

Task 4: Bank Account


Draw a flowchart for a bank account management system with the following functionalities:
o Check balance
o Deposit money
o Withdraw money (ensure sufficient balance)
Implement the flowchart using separate functions for each feature. Use a main menu to
allow users to interact with the program.

Sample Input/Output:
Welcome to the Bank System
1. Check Balance
2. Deposit Money
3. Withdraw Money
Enter your choice: 2 [Press Enter]
Enter amount to deposit: 500 [Press Enter]
Your new balance is: 1500

Task 5: Mean and Standard Deviation


Draw a flowchart that inputs five numbers and outputs the mean (average) and standard
deviation of the numbers. If the numbers are x1, x2, x3, x4, and x5, then the mean is x = (x1
+ x2 + x3 + x4 + x5)/5 and the standard deviation is:
Design the following functions: a function that calculates and returns the mean and a
function that calculates the standard deviation

Task 6: Fitness Center Membership


The cost to become a member of a fitness center is as follows:
(a) Senior citizens discount is 30%
(b) If membership is bought and paid for 12 or more months, the discount is 15%
(c) If more than five personal training sessions are bought and paid for, the discount on each
session is 20%.
Design a menu-driven flowchart that determines the cost of a new membership. Your
program must contain:
1. a function that displays general information about the fitness center and its charges
2. a function to get all the necessary information to determine the membership cost
3. a function to determine the membership cost.
Use appropriate parameters to pass information in and out of a function.

Task 7: Coin Toss


Design a function named coinToss that simulates the tossing of a coin. When you call the function, it
should generate a random number in the range of 1 through 2. If the random number is 1, the
function should display “heads.” If the random number is 2, the function should display “tails.”
Demonstrate the function in a program that asks the user how many times the coin should be
tossed, and then simulates the tossing of the coin that number of times.

Hint: You can use Random() function.
