DFD is a graphical flow of data through an information system.

On data flow diagram. data FLOW from external source to internal source via
internal process.

DFD shows what kind of infomation will be input to and output from the system,
where the data come from and the data goes through and also where data will be
store.
Take note that DFD it's does not show timing information from a process, so if
there is sequence or parallel process we will not know that, unless with flowchart.

We start of from user as an external entity than the use type email and password to
login. Than it check to user database if the details are corect.
Than they have two option can compose an email or view an email. if they choose to
compose an email it will click send and it goes to send message process and the
message will go to other people and tell us if the mail already sent.

But if they choose to view mail, it can be click delete so it is delete email
process or click replay as reply email process or it can forward and email.

Thats the example of data flow diagram from email.
