Introductory Examples of Flowcharts and Pseudocode
1
Chapter 3
Calculate Pay - sequence
Start
input hours
input rate
pay = hours * rate
print pay
End
Begin
input hours
input rate
pay = hours * rate
print pay
End
2
Sum of 2 Numbers - sequence
Start
input x
input y
sum = x + y
output sum
End
Begin
input x, y
sum = x + y
print sum
End

3
Average of 3 Numbers - sequence
Start
input x
input y
input z
sum = x + y + z
avg = sum / 3.0
print avg
End
Begin
input x
input y
input z
sum = x + y + z
avg = sum / 3.0
print avg
End
4
Calculate Pay with Overtime - selection
input hours, rate
hours ≤ 40
pay = hours * rate
print pay
pay = 40 * rate +
(hours - 40) * 1.5 * rate
F
T
Begin
input hours, rate
if hours ≤ 40 then
pay = hours * rate
else
pay = 40 * rate + (hours – 40) * rate * 1.5
print pay
End

5
Average of 10 Numbers – iteration with a while loop
i = 0
sum = 0
while i < 10
input x
avg = sum / 10.0
sum = x + sum print avg
increment i
Begin
i = 0
sum = 0
while i < 10
input x
sum = sum + x
++i
avg = sum / 10.0
print avg
End
F
T
Begin
i = 0
sum = 0
a: if i ≥ 10 goto b
input x
sum = sum + x
++i
goto a
b: avg = sum / 10.0
print avg
End
Comment Strictly speaking, the above flowchart corresponds more to the
pseudocode on the right hand side. However, as you can see, ‘gotos’ make
code less modular and more unreadable.

Average of 10 Numbers – iteration with a for loop
sum = 0
i
1
1 10
1
input x
sum = x + sum
i
avg = sum / 10.0
print avg
Begin
sum = 0
for i = 1 to 10
input x
sum = sum + x
avg = sum / 10.0
print avg
End

7
Flowchart for Function or Subroutine Module
Average
print “average is”, avg
input a, b, c
Average
sum = a + b + c
avg = sum / 3
Exit
Begin
print “input 3 numbers”
input a, b, c
End
Begin
print “Input 3 numbers: ”
input a, b, c
avg = average(a, b, c)
print “Average is ”, avg
End
Begin Average(a, b, c)
sum = a + b + c
avg = sum / 3.0
return avg
End
