Programs solve - ANS ✔✔problems.
Before writing a program, a programmer must first create an - ANS ✔✔algorithm to correctly
solve the given problem.
An algorithm is a sequence of steps that - ANS ✔✔solves a problem, generating correct output
for any valid input values. Ensuring an algorithm's correctness is a key job for a programmer.
algorithm time efficiency: - ANS ✔✔The number of calculations required to solve a problem. For
the same problem, some algorithms may be much more time efficient than others.
Simple programs are more likely to be - ANS ✔✔correct, and correctness is always most
important.
Efficient algorithms tend to be less - ANS ✔✔simple, so programmers should consider efficiency
only when needed, like when dealing with very large data sets that result in slow program
execution.
An algorithm describes a - ANS ✔✔sequence of steps to solve a computational problem or
perform a calculation. An algorithm can be described in English, pseudocode, a programming
language, hardware, etc.
A computational problem specifies an - ANS ✔✔input, a question about the input that can be
answered using a computer, and the desired output.
