ALGORITHMS AND FLOWCHARTS
• A typical programming task can be divided into two phases:
• Problem solving phase– produce an ordered sequence of steps that describe solution
of problem– this sequence of steps is called an algorithm
• Implementation phase – implement the program in some programming language

Steps in Problem Solving• First produce a general algorithm (one can use
pseudocode) • Refine the algorithm successively to get step by
step detailed algorithm that is very close to a computer language.
• Pseudocode is an artificial and informal language that helps programmers develop algorithms. Pseudocode is very similar to everyday English.

Pseudocode & Algorithm
• Example 1: Write an algorithm to determine a student’s final grade and indicate whether it is passing or failing. The final grade is calculated as the average of four marks.

The Flowchart• (Dictionary) A schematic representation of a sequence of
operations, as in a manufacturing process or computer program.
• (Technical) A graphical representation of the sequence of operations in an information system or program. Information system flowcharts show how data flows from source documents through the computer to final distribution to users. Program flowcharts show the sequence of instructions in a single program or subroutine. Different symbols are used to draw each type of flowchart.

The Flowchart
A Flowchart– shows logic of an algorithm– emphasizes individual steps and their
interconnections– e.g. control flow from one action to the next

Q: Is this the only possible algorithm for converting a decimal number into a binary representation?
If not, then is this the best?In terms of speed?In terms of memory requirement?In terms of ease of implementation?
You must ask these questions after writing any algorithm!

Tips on Writing Good Pseudo Code• Use indention for improved clarity
• Do not put “code” in pseudo code – make your pseudo code computer language independent
• Don’t write pseudo code for yourself – write it in an clear fashion so that anyone of the team member with a reasonable knowledge can understand and implement it.
• Prefer formulas over English language descriptions
