Understanding Flowcharts
A flowchart is a section with a certain symbol (code) that describes and describes the process steps in detail, and the relationship between the process (method) and other processes in a program.
Understanding Flowcharts According to Experts
- Pahlevy (2010)
Pahlevy argues that a flowchart is a symbol in the form of a flow chart of the algorithms in a program, which indicates the direction of the program flow.
- Jogiyanto (2005)
Jogiyanto assumes that a flowchart is a chart that displays the flow or flow in a program or system procedure logically.
- Krismiaji (2010)
Krismiaji argues that flowcharts are an analytical technique used to explain aspects of an issue system in a logical, clear, and precise manner.
- Indrajani (2011)
Flowchart according to Indrajani’s view is a graphical description of the steps and sequence of procedures of a program.
- Sariadin Siallagan (2009)
Sariadin Siallagan assumes that a flowchart is a chart or a flow chart that uses symbols or signs to solve a problem.
Types of Flowcharts
- System Flowchart
A system flowchart is a chart that shows the workflow or what is being done in a method as a whole and explains the sequence of steps in a method. In other words, this flowchart is a graphical description of the sequence of combined procedures that make up a method.
System flowcharts consist of data flowing through the methods and practices that transform that data. The data and processes in the system flowchart are shown online or offline.
- Document Flowchart
Document flowcharts can also be form flowcharts or paperwork flowcharts, which are flowcharts that tell the flow of reports and forms along with their copies. This document flowchart uses the same symbols used in system flowcharts.
- Schematic Flowchart
A schematic flowchart (schematic flowchart) is a flow chart that is similar to a system flow chart, which serves to describe the steps in the system. The difference is that the schematic flow chart, in addition to using system flow chart symbols, also uses computer images and other tools. The use of this symbol is easy to understand, but long and difficult to describe.
- Program Flowchart
Program flowchart (program flowchart) is a chart that describes in detail the procedure of the program process. Program flowcharts are created from a diversified system flowchart. There are 2 types of program flowcharts, including: program logic flowcharts and detailed PC program flowcharts. This program logic flow chart is started by the systems analyst. A program logic flow chart is used to explain and describe the steps in a computer program logically.
- Process Flowchart
Process Flowchart is an industrial engineering drawing technique that breaks down and analyzes subsequent processes in a procedure or system. The process flow chart uses 5 separate symbols as shown in the table below. Process flowcharts are used by industrial engineers in studying and developing manufacturing processes. In systems analysis, this flowchart is used effectively with the function of tracing the flow of a report or form.
