Just curious:
Does anyone sit down and sketch out a crude flowchart these days?
Seems it is a lost skill, but with scratch makign programing available to ever younger programers, it might be something worth doing.
Whilst in many cases the user-friendlyness of scratch makes a flowchart moot, there are some programs that would likely benefit from it - especially as (I find) an initially simple program can rapidly spiral into a complicated morass of scripts as you try to cover contingencies, only to then find that something doesn't work the way you wanted it to...

I haven't used a flowchart in about 30 years. Pseudocode is more compact and easier to read. Flowcharts don't express parallel program flow very well, so are unlikely to be of much use in designing more complex scratch programs.
