Start Date: 30th September 2015 0:00 AM UTC Finish Date: 31st March 2016 0:00 AM UTC Time Commitment Between 2 to 3 hours per week. Assessment Due Date This course is self-paced so you can complete your assessments when it suits you. Grading Scheme Pass (50% or higher) Fail (under 50%) Flowchart Symbols You’ll see us using quite a few flowcharts to explain coding concepts during the course. This information will help you to understand the symbols used within these flowcharts. An oval represents a ‘terminator shape’. All flowcharts begin with a START symbol. The parallelogram represents either an ‘INPUT’ or ‘OUTPUT’ operation. This includes some form of data, materials or components. E.g. Input: text, integers, peripherals such as mouse input or keyboard input, etc. Output: sound, text, integers, visual, etc. The rectangle represents a process to be carried out, such as a task or an action. The diamond represents a decision (branch) to be made. The program then continues along one path. E.g. IF/THEN/ELSE. The flow line (arrow) represents the direction of logical flow through a program. The arrow will branch where decisions are made in a program.

Flowchart Symbols You’ll see us using quite a few flowcharts to explain coding concepts during the course. This information will help you to understand the symbols used within these flowcharts.
An oval represents a ‘terminator shape’. All flowcharts begin with a START symbol.
The parallelogram represents either an ‘INPUT’ or ‘OUTPUT’ operation. This includes some form of data, materials or components. E.g. Input: text, integers, peripherals such as mouse input or keyboard input, etc. Output: sound, text, integers, visual, etc.
The rectangle represents a process to be carried out, such as a task or an action.
The diamond represents a decision (branch) to be made. The program then continues along one path. E.g. IF/THEN/ELSE.
The flow line (arrow) represents the direction of logical flow through a program. The arrow will branch where decisions are made in a program.

This is the symbol used for any process step that stores data.
This step indicates a process step where information is displayed to a user.
This is a ‘terminator shape’. All flowcharts end with a terminate (END) symbol.
This symbol is used where users are requested to input information manually.
