Flowcharts

[gothwalk]

We're working on getting documentation done for various programs and processes in here in SIA. It seems to be agreed that flowcharts are a useful tool for this, and we even have some funky and very expensive software to draw them. Nobody seems to know what the little boxes and arrows acually mean, though. I have a vague notion that the diamond box is a decision, and the rectangle a process - or is that an arrow? Can anyone point me at a Programming Flowcharts for Dummies page?

If you hover over the flowchart autoshapes in Powerpoint, they tell you what they are.
