Flowchart Data Input Output

Flowchart data input output. Printing the results is an output. In raptor we can use an input symbol to input data. Drawing the above flowchart demonstrates the use of the input and output shape. While the paper tape symbol also represents input output it is outdated and no longer in common use for flowchart diagramming.
Used to indicate a document or report see image in sample flow chart below. When an input symbol is executed in the flowchart a prompt dialog is displayed prompting the user to enter the input value. You can drag an input symbol onto your flowchart and double click in the symbol. The enter input dialog box shows a prompt and variable name as shown in the below picture.
