hey.. taking a Intro-to-programming course and have to do 2 flocharts for homework. ( i need to include a decision in each flowchart ) . i'd apprecate it if someone could tell me if what i have done is correct or not..

!) Draw a flowchart to get a haircut

Start
Get in Car
drive to hairdresser
Tell barber to cut hair in a style of your choice
Sit on a chair and let barber cut your hair.

Decision:

Is barber is done cutting hair

No:

Kepe sitting ... Link to the flowline between "sit on a chair and let barber cut your hair" and decision box.

yes :

pay the barber

get in car and drive home

Stop

2) Writing a letter:

Start
Take pen and sheet of paper
Write a rough draft of the letter

Decision:

Is the rough draft framed well ?

No:

review rough draft and make appropriate changes ( and then link this to the flowline between "write a rough draft of the letter" and the decision" )

Yes:

Make the final copy from the rough draft

Stop

I'd say skip that and do a flowchart on having a bowel movement.

The first one is definitely fine, I'm not too positively sure on the second one, but it seems correct.

All I know when I (god what was I thinking) took COBOL, we couldnt assume anything when we made our flowcharts. So we'd get docked down for assuming that people know how to drive a car, how to get to the barbershop etc.

But to me both look alright.
