Introducción
A Flowchart represents the graphical schematization of an algorithm, which
graphically shows the steps or processes to follow to achieve the solution to a
problem. Its correct construction is extremely important because, from it, a program
is written in some Programming Language. If the flowchart is complete and correct,
the transition from it to a programming language is relatively simple and direct.
It is important to highlight that the Flow Diagram shows the system as a
network of functional processes connected to each other by "Pipes" and
"Repositories" of data that allows describing the movement of data through the
System. This will describe: Places of Origin and Destination of the data,
Transformations to which the data is subjected, Places in which the data is stored
within the system, The channels through which the data circulates.
WHAT IS A FLOWCHART
A flow chart is a diagram that describes a computer process, system, or
algorithm. They are widely used in numerous fields to document, study, plan,
improve and communicate often complex processes in clear, easy-to-understand
diagrams. Flowcharts use rectangles, ovals, diamonds, and numerous other
shapes to define the type of step, along with connecting arrows that establish the
flow and sequence. They can range from simple, hand-drawn diagrams to
comprehensive computer-created diagrams that describe multiple steps and paths.
If we take into account all the various figures in flowcharts, they are one of the
most common diagrams in the world, used by people with and without technical
knowledge in a variety of fields.

CHARACTERISTICS OF A FLOW CHART
Flowcharts are a widely used tool to represent and study the processes of
any organization due to a series of characteristics such as:
. It is a simple tool to use with a minimum of training/training to draw and
interpret them.
. It visually represents a schematic form of all the steps that a process goes
through.
. A symbology is used in each of the steps that a process follows.
. It can be used to draw a complex process or divide it into sub-processes
and draw a flow chart by each of them.
. Shows the value that is contributed in each of the steps to achieve the final
objective of the process (each step of the process contributes something to
achieve the final objective).
. They form one of the tools to achieve continuous improvement in
organizations by studying and considering how processes are developed in
organizations
