RAPTOR Chart for Multiplication Table

In this post, we will model a Raptor Flow chart for the Multiplication Table. The flowchart would prompt the user to enter the number for which the multiplication table would be displayed.

RAPTOR Flowchart

Let’s assume the table will have ten rows. The flow chart will generate ten rows for the table.

Multiplication Table Flowchart

Sample Output

Sample output for input N= 10.

Note that the flowchart assumes valid input from the user.

Multiplication Table Output

Flowchart Output

Multiplication Table for 10
———————————————
1 * 10 = 10
2 * 10 = 20
3 * 10 = 30
4 * 10 = 40
5 * 10 = 50
6 * 10 = 60
7 * 10 = 70
8 * 10 = 80
9 * 10 = 90
10 * 10 = 100
———————————————

Each iteration in the loop(repetition structure) displays one row of the table. The loop terminates when the row is more than the number of rows in the table. i.e 10.

Enhancements

Constant for Table Row

We can further enhance the flowchart to include a constant for the table row count. Alternatively, we can declare a constant, such as TABLE_ROWS, and assign the value to the constant. We can now have the loop condition to check:

row > TABLE_ROWS

User Input validation.

As you can see, the user input for the variable N is not validated. We just assumed that the user would input a number. We can further enhance the flowchart to be defensive.
