How to add repetition structure to the Raptor Flowchart

How to add repetition structure to the Raptor Flowchart

The repetition structure or Loop symbol in the Raptor flowchart is used to repeat a sequence of symbols until a certain condition is met. The condition is entered into the diamond box of the loop.

 

The loop is executed when the condition is False/No.   The loop is exited when the condition in the diamond box evaluates to Yes /True.

How to add

We can add the loop symbol to the flowchart in multiple ways.

Drag and drop the loop symbol from the Symbols pane to the flowchart workspace.

Right-click on the workspace >> Insert Loop

Things to take care

Some of the important things to take care of while working with loops are:

Decide on the loop condition.

The loop variable that decides the number of runs should be incremented/decremented inside the loop based on the loop exit condition. Any errors would result in infinite loops in the flowchart. The loop would be executed indefinitely.

 

Sample Flowchart

Let’s design a sample flowchart that uses a loop structure to execute the loop for 10 iterations.
