Designing a method with pseudocode and flowchart

Create a new C# project in Visual Studio (the same applies to C/C++ and Visual Basic with different syntax).
Place your cursor in a blank method.
Select the Pseudocode Editor from the View menu.
The pseudocode editor will become visible and you can position it to your own preference.
Enter the following pseudocode.
Press the commit button and confirm that you would like to update the method's code.
The method will be populated with skeleton code that is ready to be implemented.
Select the Flowchart Editor from the View menu.
Position the Flowchart Editor to your preference.
Move your cursor into the code editor and see the associated symbol highlighted in the flowchart.
Implement the following code and watch the flowchart updating.
The flowchart symbols turn green when they have code associated with them.
You can make further edits to the flowchart by dragging and dropping or double-clicking symbols.
Press the commit button and confirm that you would like to update the method's code.
