Introduction to Flowcharting Taken from: http://www.asfa.k12.al.us/ourpages/auto/2013/8/27/40649281/Flowcharting.ppt

What is a Flowchart? START Display message “How many hours did you work?” Read Hours Display message “How much do you get paid per hour?” Read PayRate Multiply Hours by PayRate. Store result in GrossPay. Display GrossPay END A flowchart is a diagram that depicts the “flow” of a program. The figure shown here is a flowchart for the pay-calculating program shown in Program 1-1.

Basic Flowchart Symbols Terminal START Display message “How many hours did you work?” Terminals represented by rounded rectangles indicate a starting or ending point Read Hours Display message “How much do you get paid per hour?” Read PayRate Multiply Hours by PayRate. Store result in GrossPay. START Display GrossPay END Terminal END

Basic Flowchart Symbols START Display message “How many hours did you work?” Input/Output Operations represented by parallelograms indicate an input or output operation Read Hours Display message “How much do you get paid per hour?” Input/Output Operation Read PayRate Multiply Hours by PayRate. Store result in GrossPay. Display message “How many hours did you work?” Read Hours Display GrossPay END

Basic Flowchart Symbols START Display message “How many hours did you work?” Processes represented by rectangles indicates a process such as a mathematical computation or variable assignment Read Hours Display message “How much do you get paid per hour?” Read PayRate Multiply Hours by PayRate. Store result in GrossPay. Process Multiply Hours by PayRate. Store result in GrossPay. Display GrossPay END

Four Flowchart Structures Sequence Decision Repetition Case

Sequence Structure A series of actions are performed in sequence The pay-calculating example was a sequence flowchart.

Decision Structure The flowchart segment below shows how a decision structure is expressed in C++ as an if/else statement. Flowchart Python Code YES NO x < y? Calculate a as x times 2. Calculate a as x plus y. if x < y: a = x * 2 Else: a = x + y

Decision Structure The flowchart segment below shows a decision structure with only one action to perform. It is expressed as an if statement in C++ code. Flowchart Python Code YES NO x < y? Calculate a as x times 2. if x < y: a = x * 2

Repetition Structure The flowchart segment below shows a repetition structure expressed in C++ as a while loop. Flowchart Python Code x < y? Add 1 to x YES while x < y: x = x + 1

Controlling a Repetition Structure The action performed by a repetition structure must eventually cause the loop to terminate. Otherwise, an infinite loop is created. In this flowchart segment, x is never changed. Once the loop starts, it will never end. QUESTION: How can this flowchart be modified so it is no longer an infinite loop? x < y? Display x YES

Controlling a Repetition Structure ANSWER: By adding an action within the repetition that changes the value of x. x < y? Display x Add 1 to x YES

Case Structure 1 2 3 Other If years_employed = 2, bonus is set to 200 CASE years_employed 1 2 3 Other bonus = 100 bonus = 200 bonus = 400 bonus = 800 If years_employed = 1, bonus is set to 100 If years_employed is any other value, bonus is set to 800

Connectors The “A” connector indicates that the second flowchart segment begins where the first segment ends. A START END

Call calc_pay function. Modules START END Read Input. Call calc_pay function. Display results. The position of the module symbol indicates the point the module is executed. A separate flowchart can be constructed for the module.

Combining Structures This flowchart segment shows two decision structures combined. Display “x is within limits.” Display “x is outside the limits.” YES NO x > min? x < max?
