3. What are Algorithms?

   • Algorithms are a set of instructions to complete a task.
     • It is not code
       • You can use psuedocode and flowcharts to understand the algorithm
         • Pseudocode is structured English, not code, so everyone can understand.
     • Many different algorithms for the same problem
       • Some are more efficient than others
         • FASTER
         • LESS MEMORY
