This document discusses programming flowcharts. It defines a flowchart as a diagram that depicts a process or algorithm using shapes and connecting arrows. It then lists different types of programming flowcharts such as basic process, swimlane, workflow process, decision, EPC diagram, process map, SDL diagram, data flow diagram, and process flow diagram. Next, it provides five tips for better flowcharts including using consistent design elements, keeping everything on one page, flowing data from left to right, using a split path instead of a traditional decision symbol, and placing return lines under the flow diagram. Finally, it defines common flowchart symbols such as a rectangle for a process, oval for start/end, diamond for a decision, and par

1. Definition of programming flowchart
A flowchart is a diagram that depicts a process, system or computer
algorithm. They are widely used in multiple fields to document, study, plan,
improve and communicate often complex processes in clear, easy-to-
understand diagrams. Flowcharts, sometimes spelled as flow charts, use
rectangles, ovals, diamonds and potentially numerous other shapes to define
the type of step, along with connecting arrows to define flow and sequence.
They can range from simple, hand-drawn charts to comprehensive computer-
drawn diagrams depicting multiple steps and routes.
