ALGORITHM
It is step by step procedure to solve a given problem .
After analyzing the problem ,programmer writes the algorithm for that problem .
ADVANTAGES OF ALGORITHM
1. It is very easy to understand .
2. IT has got a definate procedure.
3. It is easy to first develop an algorithm and then convert into flowchart and then finally into program .
4. It is independent of programming language .
5. It is easy to debug as every step has got its own logical sequence .
DISADVANTAGES OF ALGORITHM
It is time consuming and cubersome ,because first algorithm then flowchart and then into a program.
EXAMPLE OF ALGORITHM
Find out that a given number is even or odd.
STEP 1 : START
STEP 2 : INPUT NUMBER
STEP 3 : rem = number mod 2
STEP 4 : if rem=0 then
Print " even number "
Else
Print " odd number "
STEP 5 : STOP
FLOWCHART
A Graphical representation of algorithm is known as flowchart .
Graphics that are used while accessing a flow chart .
