Algorithm should be clear and ____ Each of its steps (or phases), and their inputs/outputs should be clear and must lead to only one meaning
A
generate
B
unambiguous.
C
precise
D
meaning
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Unambiguous − Algorithm should be clear and unambiguous. Each of its steps (or phases), and their inputs/outputs should be clear and must lead to only one meaning. Input − An algorithm should have 0 or more well-defined inputs.

Detailed explanation-2: -Clear and Unambiguous: The algorithm should be clear and unambiguous. Each of its steps should be clear in all aspects and must lead to only one meaning. Well-Defined Inputs: If an algorithm says to take inputs, it should be well-defined inputs. It may or may not take input.

Detailed explanation-3: -Algorithms are well-ordered If the order is unclear, we may perform the wrong instruction or we may be uncertain which instruction should be performed next. This characteristic is especially important for computers. A computer can only execute an algorithm if it knows the exact order of steps to perform.

Detailed explanation-4: -Unambiguity: A perfect algorithm is defined as unambiguous, which means that its instructions should be clear and straightforward. Finiteness: An algorithm must be finite.

Detailed explanation-5: -If the problem is that of computations, being “unambiguous” usually means that a human of average intelligence must be able (if only in principle) to follow the instructions with pencil and paper.
