Algorithm

A specified, step-by-step process designed for solving problems or performing tasks. Utilized by computers, algorithms efficiently execute tasks such as sorting, processing, and analyzing data. It is fundamental to the fields of computer science, mathematics, and data processing. Certain analytic techniques, such as decision trees, regression analysis, and neural networks, use algorithms to execute tasks.
