this is a set of programming language statements that together perform a specific task?
procedures
bullet::::- "structural statements," which define the model. they consist of fortran-like programming language statements, and functional blocks of program code (procedures) designed for repeat operations that frequently occur in a model definition.









































bullet::::- "data statements," which assign numerical values to various changing parameters, constants, and initial conditions.









































bullet::::- "control statements," which specify options in assembly and execution of the program, and the choice of output of the results of the calculations performed.

although our original intention was to ascertain under which conditions detailed flowcharts were most helpful, our repeated negative results have led us to a more skeptical opinion of the utility of detailed flowcharts under modern programming conditions. we repeatedly selected problems and tried to create test conditions which would favor the flowchart groups, but found no statistically significant differences between the flowchart and non-flowchart groups. in some cases the mean scores for the non-flowchart groups even surpassed the means for the flowchart groups. we conjecture that detailed flowcharts are merely a redundant presentation of the information contained in the programming language statements. the flowcharts may even be at a disadvantage because they are not as complete (omitting declarations, statement labels, and input/output formats) and require many more pages than do the concise programming language statements.
