The document explains flowcharts, which are graphical representations of workflows or processes, and their historical significance, originating from Professor von Neuman in 1945. It details various symbols used in flowcharts, such as terminals, input/output symbols, process symbols, flow lines, and decision symbols, as well as different types of flowcharts, including sequential, selective, and iterative. Examples illustrate the use of flowcharts for programming practices, such as adding numbers and checking if a number is even or odd.

2. What is Flow
Chart?
A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents a
workflow or process.

3. History of Flow Chart
The first flowchart was created by Prof. Von
Neuman in 1945.
Flowcharts are important for planning and
working of a program.
Flowchart decreases our efforts i.e they are
easy to understand and check the logic &
algorithm.

5. 1.OVERVIEW

6. Flowchart are the graphical representation
of a solution to a particular problem which
comes under the category of Programming
Practices & Techniques
In simple word flowchart is a Graphical
representation of a program
Flowchart are symbolic diagrams which
shows types of data(numeric, character…
etc) data flow, control flow and
programming logic.

7. 2.SYMBOLS

8. 1.TERMINALS
Start/End
1. This symbol shows the beginning or
ending of a program i.e. first and the
last element of flowchart.
2. It is single directional i.e only one
flow line (either incoming line or
outgoing line can be connected with
terminal symbol.

9. 2. INPUT/OUTPUT SYMBOL
IINPUT/OUTPUT
A Parallelogram is used to represent
input and output operation, it can
have 2 flow lines (in coming & out
going liness)

10. 3. PROCESS SYMBOL
PROCESS
This symbol is used for showing
mathematical calculation, change in
data or any type of processing on data,
it can have 2also flow lines (incoming
& out going lines).

11. 4.FLOW LINES
A Straight line between two symbols
shows the logical flow of control in a
program is flow line

12. 5.DECISION SYMBOL
DECISION
A Diamond symbol is used to show or
apply condition , it has single flow line for
input and two flow lines for output i.e one
for true part and 0ne for false part

13. Types of Flowchart
Sequential Selective Iterative

14. Sequential Flow chart
As the name suggests,
the control flow and
data flow is
sequential flowchart.

15. Selective Flow
Chart
Selective logic simlpy involves a
number of conditions or parameters
which decides one out of several
written modules. The structures
which use these type of logic are
known Conditional structures.

16. Iterative Flow
Chart
In a flowchart, an iteration
is a loop that represents the
repetition of steps in an
algorithm. It's also known as
looping.

17. EXAMPLES

18. ADD
TWO
NUMBERS
Sequential Flow chart

19. Selective Flow Chart
Check weather number is even or
odd

20. Iterative Flow
Chart
For Loop
While Loop
do-while Loop

21. #include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
printf(“Thanking You”);
Return O;
}
