, also referred to as , is a method used to represent an algorithm or in a simplified, human-readable format. It employs plain English-like statements to outline the logic and steps of a program, without getting into specific details. This non-executable representation helps in understanding the overall flow and structure of the program logic before diving into actual coding.
s, on the other hand, present a visual representation of an algorithm or program flow using various shapes and arrows. They are useful to give a clear and concise overview of the program's s, s, and s. Flowcharts also aid in identifying the relationships between different s and their interactions within the program.
