MCQ IN COMPUTER SCIENCE & ENGINEERING

Detailed explanation-1: -An algorithm is a step-by-step procedure that defines a set of instructions that must be carried out in a specific order to produce the desired result. Algorithms are generally developed independently of underlying languages, which means that an algorithm can be implemented in more than one programming language.

Detailed explanation-2: -The seven types of algorithms are the brute force-based algorithm, greedy algorithm, recursive algorithm, backtracking algorithm, divide and conquer algorithm, dynamic programming algorithm, and randomized algorithm. There are other algorithms as well such as sorting algorithms, searching algorithms, hashing, etc.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are four types of machine learning algorithms: supervised, semi-supervised, unsupervised and reinforcement.

Detailed explanation-4: -Explanation: An algorithm becomes a program when it is written in the form of a programming language.

Detailed explanation-5: -Which programming language is best for data structures and algorithms? Data structures and algorithms are not language specific and hence you can use any language be it JavaScript, C, C++, Java or Python. You should feel comfortable with the syntax of the language and you are good to go.
