Algorithms
A set of instructions to complete a task in a finite amount of time
- Using pseudocode so that people can understand it, not written in code.
How are algorithms represented
- they can be represented with flowcharts
- Flowcharts show the steps of an algorithm in a set of shapes
- What are the symbols of Flowcharts/
- Start and end
- Rounded rectangles
- decisions
- Diamonds
- calculations
- Squares
- input/output
- Rhombus
- Start and end
- What are the symbols of Flowcharts/
- Flowcharts show the steps of an algorithm in a set of shapes
- They can also be represented with Pseudocode
- Pseudocode is a recognisable set of instructions resembling code but is universal between languages
- Selection/conditional statements
- IF ...
- Selection/conditional statements
