The letters 'A' and 'B' in "point down" triangles are what we call "connectors".
Normally they will connect to a similar symbol elsewhere on the page, and serve simply to reduce the number
of long connecting lines.
In figure 2 I have added testing of a second input, so we now have I/P1 and I/P2. The program will
sit looping around the two decision boxes until one or the other input comes
on.
The letters 'A' and 'B' in "point down" triangles are what we call "connectors".

So, this diagram is read as follows: "Sit and wait for either input 1 or input 2. If input 1 comes on first, go to 'A' and provide whatever response is programmed there. If input 2 comes on, go to 'B' and provide whatever response is programmed there."
Next I'll show you how to simplify 2, 3 or more decision diamonds into one simple symbol.
