A flowchart uses standard symbols to represent a set of instructions and the step-by-step solution to a problem. It contains symbols like a terminator that marks the start and end, action boxes that represent steps or subprocesses, input/output symbols that show materials or information entering or leaving the system, decision diamonds for branching points, and connector symbols to indicate where the flow continues. Flowcharts are diagrams that show the flow of a process through these different symbols.

2. A flowchart is a diagram
that represents a set of
instructions.

3. Flowcharts normally use standard
symbols to represent the different
types of instructions. These
symbols are used to
construct the flowchart and show
the step-by-step solution to the
problem.

4. Start/End Symbol
The terminator symbol marks the
starting or ending point of the
system. It usually contains the word
"Start" or "End."

5. Action or Process Symbol
A box can represent a single step ("add
two cups of flour"), or and entire sub-
process ("make bread") within a larger
process.

6. Input/Output Symbol
Represents material or information
entering or leaving the system, such
as customer order (input) or a product
(output).

7. Decision Symbol
A decision or branching point. Lines
representing different decisions
emerge from different points of the
diamond.

8. Connector Symbol
Indicates that the flow continues
where a matching symbol (containing
the same letter) has been placed.
