This diagrammatic representation can give a step-by-step solution to a given problem. Data is represented in these boxes, and arrows connecting them represent flow / direction of flow of data. Flowcharts are used in analyzing, designing, documenting or managing a process or program in various fields” ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_chart Wikipedia, retrieved June 18 2010).
