ALGORITHM
graphical representation
flowchart
act like mirrors of computer programs in terms of flowcharting symbols. They contain the steps of solving a problem unit for a specific result. /simplest
Program flowcharts
contain the solutions of many problem units together that are closely related to each other and interact with each other to achieve a goal.
System flowcharts
A graphical representation of a process or system that details the sequencing of steps required to create output.
FLOWCHART
A typical flow chart uses a set of basic symbols to represent various functions, and shows the sequence and interconnection of functions with lines and arrows.
FLOWCHART
used to show the beginning and end of a set of computer-related processes (oval)
TERMINAL
used to show any input/output operation (parallellogram)
INPUT /OUTPUT
used to show any processing
performed by a computer system (rectangle)
COMPUTER
PROCESSING
used to indicate any process not specially defined in the flowchart (if hindi ka sure dun sa step)
PREDEFINED PROCESSING
used to write any explanatory statement required to clarify something (not really necessary)
COMMENT
used to connect the symbols
FLOWLINE
used when input comes from a document and output goes to a document.
