This document discusses algorithm flowcharts. It begins by defining an algorithm and a flowchart. An algorithm is a set of steps to solve a problem, while a flowchart uses symbols like boxes and arrows to visually represent the steps in an algorithm. The document then discusses the key components of algorithms like inputs, outputs, and termination. It presents the common symbols used in flowcharts and different types of flowcharts. Advantages of flowcharts are that they clearly show the logic flow and make algorithms easier to understand. Limitations include that they only represent one perspective and require well-defined requirements.

ALGORITHM FLOWCHARTS

6. ALGORITHM FLOWCHARTS

7. What is algorithm?
• An algorithm is a representation of a solution to a
problem.
• An algorithm is procedure consisting of a finite
set of unambiguous rules (instructions) which
specify a finite sequence of operations that
provides the solution to a problem, or to a
specific class of problems for any allowable set of
input quantities (if there are inputs). In other
word, an algorithm is a step-by-step procedure to
solve a given problem

8. What is algorithm flowcharts?
• A flowchart is a diagram made up of boxes, diamonds and
other shapes, connected by arrows - each shape represents
a step in the process, and the arrows show the order in
which they occur. Flowcharting combines symbols and
flowlines, to show figuratively the operation of an
algorithm.
• A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents
an algorithm or process, showing the steps as boxes of
various kinds, and their order by connecting them with
arrows.
• Flowcharts are used in analyzing, designing, documenting
or managing a process or program in various fields

9. Properties of an Algorithm
• Finiteness: - an algorithm terminates after a finite
numbers of steps.
• Definiteness: - each step in algorithm is unambiguous.
This means that the action specified by the step cannot
be interpreted (explain the meaning of) in multiple
ways & can be performed without any confusion.
• Input:- an algorithm accepts zero or more inputs
• Output:- it produces at least one output.
• Effectiveness:- it consists of basic instructions that are
realizable. This means that the instructions can be
performed by using the given inputs in a finite amount
of time.

10. Symbols of flowcharts
• Start and end symbols
• Arrows
• Generic processing steps
• Subroutines
• Input/Output
• Prepare conditional
• Conditional or decision
• Junction symbol
• Concurrency symbol
• Labeled connectors

12. Types of flowchart
• Document flowcharts, showing controls over a
document-flow through a system
• Data flowcharts, showing controls over a data-
flow in a system
• System flowcharts showing controls at a
physical or resource level
• Program flowchart, showing the controls in a
program within a system

13. Advantages of Flowchart
• It provides an easy way of communication because any
other person besides the programmer can understand
the way they are represented.
• It represents the data flow.
• It checks the accuracy in logic flow.
• It documents the steps followed in an algorithm.
• It provides the facility for coding.
• They shows all major elements and their relationship.
• It provides the way of modification of running
program.

14. Limitation of Flow Charts
• It is the total perception of the designer who
draw the flowchart.
• It's working differ from one compiler to
another ,one language to another in some
time.
• It need weldefined requiremnts.
• Its basically for structured programming.
