algorithm. They are widely used in multiple fields to document, study, plan,
improve and communicate often complex processes in clear, easy-to-

Programmers often use it as a program-planning tool to solve a problem. It


makes use of symbols which are connected among them to indicate the flow
of information and processing.

Basic Symbols used in Flowchart Designs:

Terminal - Indicates Start and Stop in a


Terminal program’s logic flow. Terminal is the first and
last symbol in the flowchart.

Input/Output – Denotes any function of

input/output type. Program instructions that
take input from input devices and display
output on output devices are indicated with
parallelogram in a flowchart.
Process – Represents arithmetic instructions.
All arithmetic processes such as adding
Process
subtracting, multiplication and division are
indicated by action or process symbol.

Decision – Represents a decision point.


Decision based operations such as yes/no
Decision
question or true/false are indicated by
diamond in flowchart.

Flow Lines – Flow lines indicate the exact


sequence in which instructions are executed.
Arrows represent the direction of control and
