What is an Algorithm? It is a set of rules that allows you to solve computational problems in an organized and definite order. You can also use algorithms on a roadmap to reach a destination.

This course is important to understand the basics in Algorithm as they are related to all the branches in computer science, development of technological innovations, quantum mechanics, economic market and facing new challenges on developing the current technologies.

Assessment

This course does not involve any written exams. Students need to answer 5 assignment questions to complete the course, the answers will be in the form of written work in pdf or word. Students can write the answers in their own time. Each answer needs to be 200 words (1 Page). Once the answers are submitted, the tutor will check and assess the work.

Certification
