Problem Solving: Algorithms and Flowcharts.
In Programming, Algorithms and Flowcharts are very important topics; Let's discuss the difference between Algorithms and Flowcharts in detail:
Algorithm: -
| S. No. | ALGORITHM | FLOWCHART |
|---|---|---|
| I | An algorithm is a step-by-step procedure to solve a problem. | The flowchart is a diagram created with different shapes to show the flow of data. |
| II | An algorithm is complex to understand. | The flowchart is easy to understand. |
| III | An algorithm is easy to debug. | A flowchart is hard to debug. |
| IV | In the algorithm, plain text is used. | In flowcharts, symbols/shapes are used. |
| V | The algorithm does not follow any rules. | Flowchart follows rules to be constructed. |
| VI | An algorithm is the pseudo-code for the program. | The flowchart is just a graphical representation of that logic. |
| VII | An algorithm is difficult to construct. | The flowchart is simple to construct. |
