Comment by Pankaj Patel on "Before starting to code, do you prepare flow diagram and decision tree? Why and why not?"

It's always good to have both, but we have been dong just the High Level Flow diagram in our team and allowed the others to decide on their coding style to go with decision tree.

If the logic is way complex, it's best to have both in hand before writing any piece of code.

Reason to do so:

it gives every member an overview about the code created by other members
everyone is on same page about understanding
no more small discussions and decisions to worry about (of course)
other than developers (managers) can contribute the improvements
