What are algorithms used for?
A
To plan out the solution to a problem
B
As a platform to program a solution
C
To test a solution to a problem
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -An algorithm is a plan for solving a problem, but plans come in several levels of detail. It’s usually better to start with a high-level algorithm that includes the major part of a solution, but leaves the details until later. We can use an everyday example to demonstrate a high-level algorithm.

Detailed explanation-2: -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.

Detailed explanation-3: -Algorithms are instructions for solving a problem or completing a task. Recipes are algorithms, as are math equations. Computer code is algorithmic. The internet runs on algorithms and all online searching is accomplished through them.

Detailed explanation-4: -There are four types of machine learning algorithms: supervised, semi-supervised, unsupervised and reinforcement.
