1.Definition of programming flowchart.

-A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents an algorithm, workflow or process. The flowchart
shows the steps as boxes of various kinds, and their order by connecting the boxes with arrows. This
diagrammatic representation illustrates a solution model to a given problem. Flowcharts are used in
analyzing, designing, documenting or managing a process or program in various fields.

2. List of different types of programming flowchart.

-Workflow Diagram

-Data Flow Diagram

- EPC Diagram

-SDL Diagram

-Process Map

-Process Flow Diagram

3. List the flowcharting techniques4. Illustration and definition of basic flowchart symbols.

- Flowcharts are the ideal diagrams for visually representing business processes. For example, if you
need to show the flow of a custom-order process through various departments within your organization,
you can use a flowchart. This paper provides a visual representation of basic flowchart symbols and their
proposed use in communicating the structure of a well-developed web site, as well as their correlation
in developing online instructional projects. A typical flowchart from older Computer Science textbooks
may have the following kinds of symbols: Start and And, Process, Decision, Document and Sub Process.

Flowcharts may contain other symbols, such as connectors, usually represented by circles, to represent
converging paths in the flowchart. Circles will have more than one arrow coming into them but only one
going out. Some flowcharts may just have an arrow pointing to another arrow instead. These are useful
to represent an iterative process (in Computer Science this is called a loop). A loop may, for example,
consists of a connector where control first enters, processing steps, a conditional with one arrow exiting
in the loop, and one going back to the connector. Off-page connectors are often used to signify a
connection to a (part of a) process held on another sheet or screen. A flowchart is described as "cross-
functional" when the page is divided into different "lanes" describing the control of different
organizational units.
A unit appearing in a particular "lane" is within the control of that organizational unit. This technique
allows the analyst to locate the responsibility for performing an action or making a decision correctly,
allowing the relationship between different organizational units with responsibility over a single process.
