Algorithm and Flowchart Example

An algorithm is a step-by-step procedure for solving a problem, characterized by clear steps and defined start and end points. A flowchart visually represents an algorithm using symbols to illustrate the flow of steps. Common flowchart symbols include terminal for start/end, process for tasks, decision for questions, and arrows for flow direction.

Algorithm and Flowchart

What is an Algorithm?

An algorithm is a step-by-step procedure or set of instructions to solve a specific problem or perform a task.

Features of an Algorithm:

- Clear and simple steps

- Has a starting and ending point

- Solves a particular problem

What is a Flowchart?

A flowchart is a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm. It uses symbols like rectangles, ovals, and

diamonds to show the flow of steps.

Common Flowchart Symbols:

- Terminal: Start/End of the process

- Process: Task or instruction

- Decision: A yes/no or true/false question

- Arrow: Shows the flow of steps

Example: Add Two Numbers

Algorithm:

1. Start

2. Input number A

3. Input number B

4. Add A and B -> Store result in C

5. Display C

6. Stop
