ALGORITHM
ENGR. JOYCE C. BERNADOS, IE,MAED-AS,LPT,(RES) PA
WHAT IS ALGORITHM?

 An algorithm is a well-defined procedure


that takes some input and produces a
corresponding output. It's a set of
instructions that is used to solve a specific
problem or perform a particular task.
What is Programming?
 Programming is the process of
designing, writing, testing,
debugging and maintaining
software programs using
programming languages.
 Everyday Life Algorithms
Recipe Algorithm:
 Input: Ingredients (flour, sugar, eggs, etc.)
 Steps: Mix, bake, decorate
 Output: A delicious cake!
Getting Ready for Work Algorithm:
 Input: Wake-up time, work schedule
 Steps: Wake up, brush teeth, shower, dress, have breakfast
 Output: Being ready for work on time!
Mathematical Algorithms
 Addition Algorithm:
 Input: Two numbers (a, b)
 Steps: Add a and b
 Output: The sum of a and b
Algorithm: Find Maximum of Two Numbers

 Input: a, b (two numbers)

 1. If a > b then
 2. max = a
 3. Else
 4. max = b
 5. Return max
Here are some common sets of algorithms used to solve
various problems:
 1. Sorting Algorithms
 Bubble Sort
 Selection Sort
 Insertion Sort
 Merge Sort
 Quick Sort
 Heap Sort
 Used for: Arranging data in ascending or descending
order.
2. Searching Algorithms
 Linear Search
 Binary Search
 Depth-First Search (DFS)
 Breadth-First Search (BFS)
 Used for: Finding specific data
within a dataset.
