A flow chart is a graphical representation of a process using standard symbols. It shows each step in a process connected by arrows to illustrate the order and flow. Standard symbols include rectangles for processes, diamonds for decisions, and ovals for start/end points or input/output. Examples show a simple morning routine with getting up and turning off an alarm, and two processes for answering a phone call and turning on a TV. Arrows connect the symbols to depict the sequential order and outcomes of decisions.
