MAKING A CUP OF TEA                                  CALCULATE THE SUM OF TWO NUMBERS

                 Step  1   Start.                                     Step  1   Start.
                 Step  2   Boil the water in the kettle.              Step  2    Read two numbers and store them

                 Step  3   Pour the boiling water into the cup.                 in A and B.

                 Step  4    Add milk, sugar and put a teabag in a     Step  3   Add two numbers A and B.
                            cup.                                      Step  4   Print the sum.
                 Step  5   Stir the tea, and the tea is ready.        Step  5   Stop.

                 Step  6   Stop.


                 CALCULATING THE AREA OF A CIRCLE

                 Step  1   Start.

                 Step  2    Read the radius of the circle and store it in r. (where, r is the length from the centre of
                           the circle to the edge of the circle.)

                 Step  3   Calculate the area of the circle. (where, Area = π × r (3.14 × radius × radius))
                                                                                2
                 Step  4   Print the area.

                 Step  5   Stop.




                           FLOWCHART

                 A flowchart is the graphical representation of a process and the logic (which is also called an
                 algorithm) used in it. Flowcharts are used in a variety of fields to analyze, design, document, or
                 manage a process or program.


                 SYMBOLS USED IN FLOWCHART

                 A flowchart uses specific geometrical shapes and directional arrows to represent a particular
                 task. A set of geometrical boxes represents the steps involved in the solution process. Each box
                 represents a specific function, activity, or process. Directional arrows are used to connect the
                 boxes to show the flow of the solution.
