Flowcharting Alice in Wonderland

Flowcharting Alice in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking Glass was an interesting experience. Having never read the actual book, I found it a little troubling to even start.  However, there was a sort of “cheat” we were able to use while flowcharting it.  That was to do it chapter by chapter.  So by chapters, we all flowcharted the story and then filled in the details.  Now I can’t help but realize that what we did in class Tuesday was very similar to flowcharting in programming.  Your start with Input the same way we start with characters and setting.  Eventually, we filled in the details in between.  It’s similar to the processing step in flowcharting a program.  The details in between are like the processing. When you get to the end, it is obvious that the output is just like charting the end of the program.  Flowcharting takes the same 3 basic principles; no matter what subject it is: The initial stuff you know whether it be input, characters, or setting; the processing and details of the program or story,  and the ending of the story or the output.  In short, I learned that flowcharting can be applied to multiple situations and not just programming
