Interesting to hear that opinions still differ. If I had to use assembly,
I'd probably use some pseudocode, rather than flowchart, to map the
procedures. With a high-level language, the program IS the flowchart.
 I guess some people prefer a more visual approach, but I personally have
never seen the benefit.
  Procedual code is in a sense linear, and top down. Its well represented
by high-level (pseudo)code.
