FLOWCHART A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents an algorithm or process‚ showing the steps as boxes of various kinds‚ and their order by connecting them with arrows. This diagrammatic representation illustrates a solution to a given problem. Process operations are represented in these boxes‚ and arrows; rather‚ they are implied by the sequencing of operations. Flowcharts are used in analyzing‚ designing‚ documenting or managing a process or program in various fields.[1] Overview[edit]

A Venn diagram is a drawing‚ in which circular areas represent groups of items usually sharing common properties. The drawing consists of two or more circles‚ each representing a specific group or set. This process of visualizing logical relationships was devised by John Venn (1834-1923). Each Venn diagram begins with a rectangle representing theuniversal set. Then each set of values in the problem is represented by a circle. Any values that belong to more than one set will be placed in

BAR DIAGRAMS Bar diagrams are one of easiest and the most commonly used devices of presenting most of the business and economic data. These are satisfactory for categorical data or series. They consist a group of equidistant rectangles‚ one of each group or category of the data in which the values or the magnitudes are represented by the length or height of the rectangles‚ the width of the rectangles being arbitrary and immaterial. These diagrams are called one-dimensional because in such diagrams

Reading Response (Diagrams Matter by Stan Allen) “A diagram architecture is not necessary an architecture produced through diagrams.... Instead‚ diagram architecture is an architecture that behaves like a diagram‚ indifferent to the specific means of its realization." (Par. 13) This paragraph points out the answer that beginners architecture students struggled to find. In the process of design‚ I try to find the potential through the translation from reality to the abstract diagram. While I wonder

Dealing with Data: Using NVivo in the Qualitative Data Analysis Process The decision to use computer software programs for qualitative data analysis is essentially up to the person analyzing the data. There are positives and negatives when using these software programs to analyze data. A researcher in London wanted to find out if using the software package NVivo would be helpful in her data analysis process. The purpose of the study was to consider the difficulties surrounding interrogation

Mobile Cement Plant Process Flow Chart The main raw materials used in the cement manufacturing process are limestone‚ sand‚ shale‚ clay‚ and iron ore. The main material‚ limestone‚ is usually mined on site while the other minor materials may be mined either on site or in nearby quarries. Another source of raw materials is industrial by-products. The use of by-product materials to replace natural raw materials is a key element in achieving sustainable development. In the wet process‚ the slurry is fed

Steps in the data preparation process. Editing involves reviewing questionnaires to increase accuracy and precision. It consists of screening questionnaires to identify illegible‚ incomplete‚ inconsistent‚ or ambiguous responses. Responses may be illegible if they have been poorly recorded‚ such as answers to unstructured or open-ended questions. Likewise‚ questionnaires may be incomplete to varying degrees. A few or many questions may be unanswered. At this stage‚ the researcher makes a preliminary
