Algorithms

An algorithm is a set of instructions used to solve a problem. Using an algorithm, a problem can be solved without any understanding of how the process works.


In OCR D1, you should know about sorting algorithms and packing algorithms. You should also be able to apply an algorithm if it has been presented to you as a flow diagrom or as a list of instructions. Finally, you should be able to understand or determine the order, size and efficiency of an algorithm.
