definition of an algorithm






  • Definition of algorithm: in computer science, an algorithm is a series of instructions, for solving problems step by step.
  • The goal of an algorithms is the purpose of an algorithm, in this example it is counting persons in a room.
  • Pseudo code is an english like instruction set the sintaxis that resembles the programing language
  • The Definition of variable is the representing of what we are counting.
  • The definition of loop is the sequence of steps that will repeat some numbers of times.
  • Testing algorithm: You must establish if the algorithm works so you bang on it a bit testing corner cases or specific cases. 
  • The corner case is a case that is not typical. To test the corner cases they try to know if the algorithm functions with 0 persons in a room.
  • The branch is a new condition that you establish in a new line (line4) when an Algorithm doesn't function.

What is an Algorithm?

1) Definition and Algorithm: "0,21 S.'' An Algorithm is a set of Instructions for solulving some problem step by step. 2) Definition of the Goal: ''0,30 S.'' The Goal of an Algorithm is about counting how mutch people is in the room. 3) Pseudo code: ''0,43 S.'' The Pseudo code is the language to express the Algorithm. 4 )Definition of variable : ''0,57 S.'' The Definition of variable is the representing of what we are counting. 5) Definition of loap: ''1,17 S.'' The Definition of loap is a sequence of steps that will repeat some numbers of times. 6) Definition of triding an Algorithm: ''1,38 S.'' It describes how we will count. 7) How to make algorithm: ''2,02 S.'' We start counting something at zero, and then for each person in the room we will increment N by 1, so with the first trip we will start counting at zero. And the second trip trough the same lo...

1.  Algorithm:    an Algorithm is a set of instructions for solving a problem step by step. 2. Goal: the goal is about to count people in the room. 3. Pseudo code: the pseudo code is the language of programming. 4. Variable: variable is a letter that is equal to zero. 5 Loop: a loop is a sequence of steps that will repeat some number of times. 6. How to test an algorithm: it describe how we will go about counting. 7  How to make an algorithm: we start counting something starting at zero then for each one in the room we increment N by 1. so in the first trip trough the loop, we uptraid N from zero  to 1 on the second trip thought that same loop. 8 Testing algorithm: if you want to count people in a room, and in the room are 3 people, the result will be 3. If the answer isn't 3, then the algorithm is wrong.  9 We test corner cases: Suppose that are zero people in the room, we initialize N equal to zero but this time line doesn't execut...

algorithm:algorithm is an insturuction for solve a problem step by step goal:is what you will to do and complete pseudoucode:english lenguange to understand the programm lenguage variable:a variable is a value loap:a sequense of steps that will  repeat  some numbers of times testing algorithm when the final result is the same that the  number you will count its correct we test corner cases:spours there are 0 persons in the room. we start intializing n to 0,but the n by 1 doesnt execute at all. sinse there isnt a person in the room,and so n remains to 0 branch:its an algorithm thonly execute when the number you count isnt pair
