algorithm is a set of instructions to do a task. it is not only limited to computers. even walking or doing random stuff includes algorithms.

hi. Seth Kumah Algorithm is a step by step procedure to solving a problem (or in this case, to create a program) Algorithm is not written with a programming language. There are two kinds of writing an algoritm. 1. Pseudo-code: This is the process of writing an algoritm with english-like statements. 2. Flow charts: In this kind of algorithm, the step by step procedure is illustrated using charts (or shapes in which the instructions are written). Examples of Pseudo-code algoritm: Say you want to build a program which outputs even numbers between 1 and 10. To write an algorithm, you might get a pen and paper to write the step by step instructions your computer should follow to get the results. It could go like this; START 1. Let a = 0 2. add 2 to a 3. If a is equal to 10, end the program. Else do step 2 again. END NOTE: An algorithm does not need any specific programming language to write. it's just the developer's way of creating a program jotted down so that it can be easily implemented in his code

This is the little info i have. you can also research of flow chart algorithms.
