It defines the symbols used in flowcharts such as rectangles for processes, diamonds for decisions, and parallelograms for input/output. It provides examples of flowcharts, such as one to find the larger of two numbers and check if a number is odd or even. As an exercise, it asks the reader to draw a flowchart to find the largest of three unique input numbers.
