The concept of algorithm, like the concept of information, is the basis of computer
science.
Algorithm - it is important to perform to solve the problem sequence of operations.
Algorithm connected with the name of mathematician Muhammad Ibn Musa al-
Khwarizmi who lived of the 9th century in Uzbekistan.
In general, the algorithm is given by formal software required to solve the problem.
Algorithm - to achieve a solution to the problem as a result of a finite number of steps
clear and precise defined actions performed by the executor sequence.
ALGORITHM PROPERTIES:
• This should be important for the executor - the executor of the algorithm must understand how to execute
this algorithm.
• Discreteness - the algorithm must understand the process of solving the problem step by step.
• Definition - each rule of the algorithm must be accurate, unambiguous and prevent arbitrary actions
• Performance - refers to the requirement that, within a finite number of steps, the algorithm should either
lead to the solution of the problem or halt after a finite number of steps due to the inability to find a
solution, providing appropriate information about this.
• Mass - this means that the algorithm for solving the problem is used for the general case, that is, it can only
be used for certain class problems that differ in the initial data.
ALGORITHM
DESCRIPTION
• In text form;
METHODS • Flowchart.;
• Table;
• Program (algorithmic language).
• Description of the algorithm in
ordinary language
At this time of operation, transfer of
actions As a sequential enumeration.
For example, a description of the
algorithm denoting coffee
preparation may be an example of
this.
• Flowchart.
The use of flowcharts in describing
complex algorithms is more
common, since in this case the
description of the algorithm in the
form of a flowchart becomes more
