TEZPUR 2025 — Computer PYQ

The correct answer is (c) Triangle.

In standard flowcharting notation, a triangle is not typically used as a primary symbol to represent processes, decisions, or flow control. The other shapes serve specific functions:

• Circle: Often used as an "on-page connector" to link different parts of a flowchart on the same page.

• Rectangle: Represents a process or action step.

• Diamond: Represents a decision point where a condition is evaluated.

To mathematically represent the functional usage of these shapes, we can denote the set of standard flowchart symbols as $S=\{\text{Terminal},\text{Process},\text{Decision},\text{Connector}\}$. If we map the given options to these standard functions, we can say:

$$f(\text{Rectangle})\to \text{Process}$$

$$f(\text{Diamond})\to \text{Decision}$$
