A decision statement is an if statement. In flowcharts, we use a diamond shape to represent decisions (see below). By convention, if the condition is true, we follow a branch to the right (labelled true or yes as appropriate). The false condition usually travels down, but can also branch left (labelled false or no as appropriate). Either way, both branches must rejoin the main flow at some point above or below the decision after carrying out their respective task(s), which may include more decisions.

What are the importance of flowchart?

A flowchart is a tool for your mind. Like all tools, its value depends on the person using it. It provides one way of describing how you will plan to do a complicated task. A flowchart shows what is done when each decision must be made and when to go to each process as a result. There is a saying, "A picture is worth a thousand words." A flowchart gives a picture of the way a particular item will occur. It was originally developed for computer programming. In calculating payroll taxes, the program asks, "Is this person married?" The answer is yes or no. If it is yes, the program goes to one rate. If no, it goes to another rate. The flowchart shows all such yes and no decisions. Following those makes it easier to find mistakes in the program.
