&& AND
2. Flowchart Algorithm Variables
preparation Ex. 1.) X = 5
y= 6
Z= x + y
Collect materials
Variable : X,Y
Ex. 2.) X = 5
y=6
Z= x + y
Z = X+Y
Print……? Is ….? Less than 100?
Yes or no
Is Z less than 100?
YES or NO If true, then re- short The operation
Else if false
If true, re-start the operation
Else if false
Display result Display…..?
Then end operation
Then End the operation
START
INPUT
PROCESS
CONDITION
OUTPUT
END
