Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which one of the following statements is TRUE about Algorithm?
A
It is a computer program.
B
It is a link to another web page.
C
It is a set of steps applied to solve a problem.
D
It is a set of steps that are arranged in no particular order.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hence, we conclude that an algorithm is a set by step execution of the programme intended to solve a specific problem. Hence option (4) is the correct answer.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer: b) Algorithms are step-by-step rules for reaching a particular solution. Explanation: Algorithm is defined as step-vise procedure of solving and gaining a definite answer for a particular problem.

Detailed explanation-3: -Detailed Solution The correct answer is algorithm. An algorithm is a finite set of instructions that, if followed, accomplishes a particular task. It is the step by step procedure for solving any problem.

Detailed explanation-4: -An algorithm is a set of commands that must be followed for a computer to perform calculations or other problem-solving operations. According to its formal definition, an algorithm is a finite set of instructions carried out in a specific order to perform a particular task.

Detailed explanation-5: -Without any input, it gives output. So, zero input and one output. So, it can have zero or more output and can have one or more input. So, answer is (C).
