DDartmoor Medical Associates maintains two patient files—one for the Lakewood office and one for the Hanover office. Each record contains the name, address, city, state, and zip code of a patient, with the file maintained in zip code order. Write the flowchart or pseudocode that merges the two files to produce one master name and address file that the Dartmoor office staff can use for addressing the practice’s monthly Healthy Lifestyles newsletter mailing in zip code order. Required: Data Dictionary, Hierarchy Chart, Flowchart, and Pseudocode
