A Data Flow Diagram

The document describes a data flow diagram (DFD) for a currency converter program. The DFD contains one process called "Process Data" that takes input from two data stores - "Enter Input Amount" and "Select Base Currency" - and outputs to one data store called "Display Converted Result". It represents the flow of data through the program as the user enters an amount, selects currencies, has the data processed for conversion, and sees the result displayed.

A Data Flow Diagram (DFD) is a graphical representation of the flow of data within a system or

process. In this case, we can create a simple DFD to illustrate the data flow in the Currency
Converter program. Since the program doesn't involve complex data flow, we'll use a basic DFD
with just one process and a couple of data stores.
Here's the Data Flow Diagram of the Currency Converter program:

Start Program

Enter Input Amount

Select Base Currency

Process Data

Display Converted Result

Exit

Explanation of the Data Flow Diagram:


1. The "Enter Input Amount" data store represents the user input of the amount that needs to be
converted.
2. The "Process Data" process takes the input amount, the selected base currency, and the selected
destination currency from the GUI. It then performs the currency conversion using the ‘Currency
Converter’ class and calculates the converted amount.
3. The "Display Converted Result" data store represents the result of the currency conversion. The
processed data from the "Process Data" process is displayed in the GUI's result field.
4. The "Exit" terminal indicates the end of the program.
The data flow in this program is straightforward. The user enters the amount and selects the base and
destination currencies from the dropdown menus. When the "Convert" button is clicked, the program
processes the data, performs the currency conversion, and displays the converted result in the GUI. If there
is an invalid input, the program shows a warning message box.
