Creating a flowchart for the provided pseudo code involves illustrating the logical steps in a visual format. Below is a description of how the flowchart would look; you can use flowchart tools like Microsoft Visio, Lucidchart, or even hand-drawing it based on this description.
Flowchart Description:
-
Start: An oval-shaped start symbol.
-
Input Radius: A parallelogram to indicate input, labeled "Enter radius".
-
Decision for Radius Check: A diamond decision symbol:
-
Label the decision as "Is radius < 0?"
-
Yes Branch (True):
- Action: A parallelogram labeled "Display error message and re-enter positive radius".
- Loop back to "Input Radius".
-
No Branch (False):
- Next step: A parallelogram labeled "Enter height".
-
-
Calculate Volume: A rectangle action symbol:
- Label it "Volume = (1/2) × π × (radius^2) × height".
-
Decision for Volume Check: Another diamond decision symbol:
-
Label the decision as "Is volume > 0?"
-
Yes Branch (True):
- Next step: A parallelogram labeled "Display volume".
-
No Branch (False):
- Action: A parallelogram labeled "Display error message" (this part is implied based on the positive volume condition).
-
-
End: An oval-shaped stop symbol.
Note:
- The flowchart visually represents the process of checking the radius and height, calculating the volume, and ensuring that the volume is positive before displaying it.
- Ensure that loops and decisions are clear, and sequence the actions appropriately.
By following the above steps, you can create the flowchart which captures the logic of the given pseudo code.
