1. 程序：
程序，顾名思义，就是计算机需要执行的一系列操作，使应用程序和软件程序能够成功运行，并使用编程语言与计算机进行通信。
2.流程图：
流程图，顾名思义，只是按顺序排列的流程的图形表示或工作流，即逐步解决任务或问题的方法，进而改进业务流程。
程序和流程图的区别：
| Program | Flowchart |
|---|---|
| Programs are set of instructions or computer computer code that perform specific task. | Flowchart is graphical representation of functions of program. |
| Programs are basically coded instructions for automatic performance of particular task. | Flowchart is basically diagrammatic representation of algorithm. |
| It simply includes compiled code that run from operating system. | It simply map out process so that one can easily understand and communicate it to other people. |
| Types of program include graphic program, game program, word processor, data base system, etc. | Types of flow chart include process flowchart, data flowchart, business process modeling diagram, etc. |
| Programs include set of instructions that will automate task performance on computer for solving given problem. | Flowcharts includes special and different types of actions or steps that are represented using geometric shapes. |
| Instructions are created for computer to execute by writing and testing code. | Flowcharts are created to analyze, design, document or manage program. |
| Programs are generally complex and difficult but are not needed to be coded in several languages. | Flowcharts are generally simple and easy but when process is complex then process flowchart look messy and difficult to use or handle. |
| Program is written in programming language by typing on computer. | Flowchart symbols cannot be typed. |
