title: How to document software algorithms?
body: <p>I'm working on a large project for a university assignment, we're developing an application that is used by a business to compile quotes for their various services. </p>
  
  <p>I need to document the algorithms in a way that the client can sign off on to make sure the way we calculate the prices is correct </p>
  
  <p>So far I've tried using a large flow chart with decisions diamonds like in information systems modelling but it's proving to be overkill for even simple algorithms.</p>
  
  <p>Can anybody please suggest some ways to do this? It needs to be as little like software code as possible, and enough for the client to see how we decide what prices are quoted</p>
