1. NOT A PROGRAM

   • Psuedocode
     • Selection
       • If.... Then... Else
       • Select Case... Of..... Otherwise.... end select
     • Well structured English, not a programming code.
   • Flowchart
     • Shapes
       • Start/Stop
       • Decision
       • Process
       • Entity

2. A process or set of rules to be followed in calculations or other problem-solving operations, especially by a computer, in a certain amount of time.

   • Use psuedocode so that everyone understands it.
   • Multiple Algorithms on one problem
     • Faster, less memory usage

3. Classic Algorithm

   • Sorting
     • Bubble
     • Quick
     • Merge
   • Searching
     • Linear
     • Binary
     • Searching
