Abstract

This article refers to a paper by Nassi and Shneiderman published in this review [1]. They introduced a type of flowchart specially designed for structured programming. We have defined a similar flowchart language for the PASCAL programming language [2, 3] and designed a program which, given a program written in PASCAL, generates the corresponding flowchart. The article presents a description of the output produced by this flowchart generator.

A Flowchart Language for Quantum Programming

Several high-level quantum programming languages have been proposed in the previous research. In this paper, we define a low-level flowchart language for quantum programming, which can be used in implementation of high-level quantum languages and in ...
