Algorithms

Cards in this deck (7)
- 1—An Algorithm is a step by step instruction for solving problems. It is something that can be followed by both humans and computers.

- 2Flow diagrams can be used to visually represent an algorithm. They use symbols connected by arrows to show the flow of the algorithm.This symbol represents the input of the user or an output onto the screen.

- 3This symbol represents the start and finish of every flowchart.This symbol represents selection in an flowchart. For Example "Is the temperature below 20 degrees? "
The only possible outcome is Yes Or No.

- 4This symbol represents the process. So what the algorithm will be doing.An Algorithm Constructs Of Three Main

- 5IterationThis is a loop. So the algorithm will keep doing a certain action until a certain condition is met
- 6SequenceThis is the way in which the algorithm works. It helps the algorithm run efficiently.
- 7SelectionThis is where a question is outputted and the input can either be Yes Or No. It helps the algorithm make a decision.
