Which describes an algorithm?
A
Set of step by step instructions to complete a task or solve a problem
B
A visual diagram to represent an algorithm
C
Re-using a chunk of code.
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -An algorithm is a plan for solving a problem. an algorithm is a step-by-step procedure, which defines a set of instructions to be executed in a certain order to get the desired output. The development of an algorithm (a plan) is a key step in solving a problem.

Detailed explanation-2: -An algorithm is a self-contained step-by-step set of operations to be performed. Algorithms performcalculation, data processing and/or automated reasoning) tasks.

Detailed explanation-3: -An algorithm is a set of instructions for solving a problem or accomplishing a task. One common example of an algorithm is a recipe, which consists of specific instructions for preparing a dish or meal.

Detailed explanation-4: -An algorithm is a defined set of step-by-step procedures that provides the correct answer to a particular problem. By following the instructions correctly, you are guaranteed to arrive at the right answer. An algorithm is often expressed in the form of a graph, where a square represents each step.
