• A. flowchart
• B. hierarchy chart
• C. structure chart
• D. context diagram
• E. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A flowchart

To help document a solution algorithm, programmers use design tools. Two structured design tools are program flowchart and pseudocode. A program flowchart (or simply flowchart) graphically shows the logic in a solution algorithm. ANSI published a set of standards for flowcharts in the early 1960s. These standards specify symbols for various operations in a Program’s logic, eg, is a decision symbol. It signifies the condition that determines a specified path to follow.
