Algorithms

                            ALGORITHMS:

An algorithm is a series of instructions or ordered steps for performing an activity or resolving a problem. 

      -TYPES OF ALGORITHMS:

·Sequetial algorithms. Algorithms whose instructions are executed one after the other in the same order as they appear.

·Selective (or conditional) algorithms. Algorithms  with a series of instruction that are executed depending on whether or not a condition is met.

·Iterative (or repeating) algorithms. Algorithms that have a set of instructions that are repeated several times. These instructions are contained in loops that mark the beginning and end of the repetition.
