Chapter2 02-07-2022

This document contains information about algorithms, flowcharts, and examples of each. It includes: 1) Examples of algorithms for making tea, finding the area of a circle, and summing three numbers. Algorithms are step-by-step instructions to solve a problem. 2) Sessions about algorithms and flowcharts, including multiple choice questions and examples of flowcharts for adding numbers, finding an average, and calculating the area of a triangle. 3) Flowcharts provide a visual representation of an algorithm using standard symbols like rectangles, diamonds, and arrows to show the program flow and logic. They can help develop and document algorithms and programs.
