A flowchart is a visual representation of operations and sequences to be performed that solve a problem or complete a task. It is a visual algorithm. If you connect an arrow back to an earlier step you don't point it to the rectangle or paralleogram, you point it to the arrow coming out of it. With the rectangle you can have one flowline in and one out but with the diamond you can one in and two out. In the diamond it must be a yes or no question. You never have diagonal arrows. Here are some basic symbols and an example I made:
Here is an example of a flowchart for a coin toss where heads means one person pays and tails means the other person pays.
