What kind of problems are solved by algorithms?
A
Compression algorithms
B
Route-finding algorithms
C
Encryption algorithms
D
Internet-related algorithms
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Computer Science: Algorithms form the basis of computer programming and are used to solve problems ranging from simple sorting and searching to complex tasks such as artificial intelligence and machine learning.

Detailed explanation-2: -Algorithms can be designed for any type of problem, i.e. mathematical, logical, or any complex problems. Example: Depth-first-search, traveling salesman, sorting algorithms, etc. But, after some steps, the algorithm would result in a finite solution before ending.

Detailed explanation-3: -Heuristic methods can help ease the cognitive load by making it easy to process decisions. These include various basic methods that aren’t rooted in any theory per se but rather rely on past experiences and common sense. Using heuristics one can, therefore, resolve challenging and non-routine problems.

Detailed explanation-4: -Algorithmic thinking is a derivative of computer science and coding. This approach automates the problem-solving process by creating a series of systematic logical steps that process a defined set of inputs and produce a defined set of outputs based on these.
