The correct answer is the Flow Chart.

Key Points

  • Flow Chart is a graphical representation of the algorithm.
  • Graphic representation of the control logic of processing function or modules representing a system called a System flow chart.
  • A flowchart is a graphical representation of an algorithm.
    • An algorithm is a set of specific steps that lead to a predefined goal.
    • A program on the other hand has a lot of other steps involved(or rather assumed) that are necessary for successful execution but not relevant to the algorithm.
  • Hence, option 3 is correct.

 

Additional Information

  • Software is a collection of instructions and data that tell the computer how to work.
    • This is in contrast to physical hardware, from which the system is built and actually performs the work.
  • Pseudocode is a term that is often used in programming and algorithm-based fields.
    • It is a methodology that allows the programmer to represent the implementation of an algorithm.
    • Simply, we can say that it's the cooked up representation of an algorithm.
