 FLOW CHART

 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.
 FLOW CHART

Flow chart is made up of two words flow & chart.

A flowchart is a diagram made up of boxes, diamonds

and other shapes, connected by arrows - each shape
represents a step in the process, and the arrows show
the order in which they occur.

Flowcharting combines symbols and flow lines, to show

figuratively the operation of an algorithm.
