ICT Flowcharts
Flowcharts - ANS-Graphical representations of a process or system using various shapes and
lines to illustrate the flow of information, decisions, and actions.
Algorithm - ANS-Step-by-step procedure to solve any logical and mathematical problem.
Benefits - ANS-Some structures are better than others depending on what it's used for, though
overall, flowcharts can:
- Clarity and understanding (simplify complex ideas and concepts to make them easier to
understand and follow).
- Improved communication (flowcharts serve as a universal language and visual representation
of a process allow better communication.
- Process optimization (allows identifications of bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and areas of
improvement).
Uses of Flowcharts - ANS-- Study Plan
- Computer Algorithm
- Make a coffee
- Software development process
- Project management flowchart
- Decision-making flowchart
Creating a flowchart - ANS-1) Define the process (understand the process/system you want to
represent).
2) Identify steps and decisions (break down the process into logical steps and decision points).
3) Map the flow (connect the steps and decisions using appropriate symbols).
4) Review and Revise (ensure flowchart is accurate and give the desired outcome/process).
Terminator - ANS-Indicated the start and end of a flowchart.
Arrows - ANS-Show the flow and connection between each symbol/step.
Input/Output - ANS-User performs an action.
Subroutines (Step/Process) - ANS-User performs a task.
