Algorithms power the modern world, but many people don't understand them. Here's the definition of an algorithm and how they're affecting our world.

So, an algorithm is the process a computer uses to transform input data into output data. A simple concept, and yet every piece of technology that you touch involves many algorithms.

Learn what an algorithm is with this KS1 primary computing guide from BBC Bitesize for years 1 and 2. We will define what an algorithm is and how they work.

Algorithms affect our daily lives more than we care to think and, most of the time, we don’t even know it. We use algorithms in our daily commute to work, or as you cook your favorite Gordon ...

In his book The Master Algorithm, Pedro Domingos offers a masterfully simple definition: “An algorithm is,” Domingos writes, “a sequence of instructions telling a computer what to do.” ...

Researchers adapt model predictive control from engineering to epidemic response, balancing health and economic costs under ...

Facebook, Google, Amazon. Their algorithms are everywhere. But do they really control our lives?

“An algorithm, written in code, does all its work invisibly,” software developer Danilo Campos explained in an email. “The implementation of an algorithm is hidden from view.

I outsourced several of my daily decisions to algorithms for a week, to better understand the lines of code playing a greater and greater role in guiding our lives.
