Directions
In this paper a number of problems are stated in the form of flow charts.
A flow chart is simply a “road map” by which you must find your way from one “town” to the next and obey every instruction you come to.
Always follow the” road” downward or to the right, unless an arrow indicates a different direction or unless an instruction requires you to do otherwise
When you come to a “fork” in the “road” there will be a question for you to answer. Match your answer with you “sign posts” on the branches leading out of the fork, and you will know which way to go
When you are told to put a number into a box it is understood that whatever number was previously in that box has just been erased
All numbers used to be in the test are to be integers ( no fraction)
Problems 4-7 are slightly different from those questions just completed
In these problems, you will be told exactly what each flow chart is intended to accomplish.
You must decide what number must be in a specified box to enable someone following the flow chart to accomplish the required outcome.
No more and No less
