You are designing a flowchart to represent a simple program that prints 'Hello, World!' if the user inputs '1' and prints 'Goodbye, World!' if the user inputs '2'. What symbol should you use to represent the decision-making step where the program determines which output to print based on the user's input?
Diamond
Circle
Arrow
Rectangle
The correct symbol for representing a decision in a flowchart is a diamond. This shape is typically used to illustrate points in the program where a yes/no or true/false question is being assessed, making it fundamental for branching logic. In this scenario, the point where the program checks whether the user input is '1' or '2' is the branching condition. The rectangle represents a process step, not a decision. The circle is generally used as a connector, and the arrow represents the flow of control.
