Hi, Structured English is like a Pseudocode but it is slightly different.
Pseudocode is concerned with variable declaration, initialization, opening and closing files, etc whereas structured English does not specify these things.
This is an example of structured english in information systems:
BEGIN IF IF Employee-Type is Salary THEN PAY base salary END IF
BEGIN IF IF Employee-Type is Hourly AND Hours-Worked is <40 THEN CALCULATE hourly wage AND PRODUCE Absence Report END IF BEGIN IF IF Employee-Type is Hourly AND Hours-Worked is 40 THEN CALCULATE END IF DFD (Data flow diagram):
It is a technique for graphically depicting, at levels of increasing detail, the transformation of data into information by processes.
DFDs show the flow of data from external entities into the system, showed how the data moved from one process to another, as well as its logical storage. Click here or here for DFD examples
