Defining algorithms by using charts

One useful application of flow charts is in the definition of algorithms. Algorithms are essentially decompositions of functions into smaller functions that specify the activities encompassed within a given process.

About this task

This flow chart approach to code generation is to reduce the diagram to blocks of sequential code and then search for If/Loop patterns in those blocks. The following structured programming control structures are supported in flow charts:

If the algorithm does not succeed to impose the structure, then it will need to use a GoTo.
