A finite set of instructions that accomplish a task.
A
Heuristic
B
Algorithm
C
Undecidable Problem
D
Efficiency
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Definition: An algorithm is a finite set of instructions which, if followed, accomplish a particular task.

Detailed explanation-3: -Finiteness: An algorithm must be finite. Finiteness in this context means that the algorithm should have a limited number of instructions, i.e., the instructions should be countable. Effectiveness: Because each instruction in an algorithm affects the overall process, it should be adequate.

Detailed explanation-4: -➢ An algorithm is a finite set of instructions that accomplishes a particular task. ➢ In addition, all algorithms must satisfy the following criteria: ➢ An algorithm is composed of a finite set of steps, each of which may require one or more operations.
