As lead analyst on a new system development project, you have been hard at work developing the program designs for the new system. Much of your time over the last three weeks has been devoted to this task, and you are nearing your target deadline. You have been so immersed in this work that you have decided to ask a team member to spend some time reviewing the structure charts that you have prepared. Although you have tried to be very careful in your work, you know that it is easy to overlook some design problems, and you want to avoid as many nasty surprises later as you can. The team member you want to help you has had quite a bit of experience reading and implementing systems from structure charts, but she has not been responsible for their development yet in her career.
