Question

can someone help me make a flowchart from this program:



#include #include using namespace std; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int point[10],large=0; cout<<"Enter a number: "<>point[0]; large=point[0]; for(int x=0;x<10;x++) { cin>>point[x]; if(point[x]>large) large=point[x]; } cout<<"The largest number is "< 14 years ago

Answer 1

You should have asked this in the computer science group. But it didn't take me much too long, and I think it could be interesting for people beginning the OCW course.

Answer 2

what could be its analysis ? the IPO . Input, Process and Output?

Answer 3

Input: 10 integers
Process: walk through the integers and keep in memory the largest integer found
Output: The largest of the 10 integers

Answer 4

so that is the Analysis of the program ?

Answer 5

It's my analysis, I don't know what you or your teacher are expecting. It certainly describes what the program is doing, but maybe you're expecting a specific way to describe this analysis...

Answer 6

yup . is this correct ? INPUT:
Point[10],x=1,large=0
PROCESS:
for(int x=1;x<10;x++);
if(point[x]>large)
OUTPUT:
The largest number

Answer 7

It seems correct to me, except x=1 is really in the process, not the input.
And I should say that the output is the largest number, or 0 is the user entered negative numbers.

Answer 8

so in the flowchart. the x=1 is in the process box not in the initialization??

Answer 9

Sure, because it is just a way to loop through the numbers

Answer 10

then on my output in my analysis, it should be The largest number or 0 or negative numbers?

Answer 11

Do you understand the program, or the diagram I made ? If not, please take 5 minutes to think about it. Then you'll probably be able to answer yourself. If not, I'll help you to find yourself the answer.

Answer 12

this is my flowchart. im sorry for the arrow, i did it on a rush ^^

Answer 13

sorry I can't read docx, put a picture instead

Answer 14

here you go

Answer 15

compare yours with mine now, and try to understand the differences

Answer 16

what is ur initialization ?

Answer 17

LOL :D its almost the same.

Answer 18

There are subtle but important differences :)
Try to do that: run yourself the flow with a paper and a pen, just for 2 or 3 numbers.

Answer 19

hmm what would be its analysis ? thats my problem

Answer 20

draw three columns: one for for large, one for x (or indice), one for point[x].
Then try to go through each step of my flowchart. Don't try to analyze anything for the moment. Your brain will do the work and you'll understand easily how it works.
