Programming IL 2

The document defines a flowchart as a diagram representing the sequence of actions in a system. It lists eight symbols used in flowcharts, including Start/End, Action or Process, Document, Decision, Input/Output, Manual Input, and Preparation symbols, along with their meanings. Additionally, it explains control structures in programming, detailing sequential, decision, and loop control structures with examples from C++.

Direction: Write your responses on the provided space. Once you done attach this to the given link for
submission.

1)​ Define Flow Chart


A flowchart is a diagram of the sequence of movements or actions of people or
things involved in a complex system or activity.

2)​ Give at least 8 symbols and its meaning.

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

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.

Document Symbol
A printed document or report

Multiple Documents Symbol


Represents multiple documents in the
process
Decision Symbol
A decision or branching point. Lines representing different decisions emerge
from different points of the diamond

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

Manual Input Symbol


Represents a step where a user is
prompted to enter information manually.

Preparation Symbol
Represents a set-up to another step in the
process

3)​ Define Control Structure


A control structure is like a block of programming that analyses variables and
chooses a direction in which to go based on given parameters. The term flow
control details the direction the program takes (which way program control
"flows"). Hence it is the basic decision-making process in computing; It is a
prediction.
4)​ Identify and define these Types of Control Structure

Sequential Control Structure: This refers to the line-by-line execution, in


which statements are executed sequentially, in the same order in which
they appear in the script. They might, for example, carry out a series of
read and write operations, arithmetic operations, or assignments to
variables.
Decision Control Structure: Depending on whether a condition is true or
false, the decision control structure may skip the execution of an entire
block of statements or even execute one block of statements instead of
another.
In C++, these are the types of selection statements:
●​ if
●​ if/else
●​ switch

Loop Control Structure: This is a control structure that allows the


execution of a block of statements multiple times until a specified condition
is met.
In C++, there are three types of loops:

●​ while
●​ do/while
●​ for
