We have looked at several basic design tools, such as hierarchy charts, flowcharts, and pseudocode. Each of these tools provide a different view of the design as they work together to define the program. Explain the unique role that each design tool provides (concepts and/or information) to the design of the program.

Answer:

Answered below

Step-by-step explanation:

Pseudocode is a language that program designers use to write the logic of the program or algorithms, which can later be implemented using any programming language of choice. It helps programmers focus on the logic of the program and not syntax.

Flowcharts are used to represent the flow of an algorithm, diagrammatically. It shows the sequence and steps an algorithm takes.

Hierarchy charts give a bird-eye view of the components of a program, from its modules, to classes to methods etc.
