What is an algorithm?
| An algorithm is a list of well-defined instructions for completing a task, such as computing an average value. Starting from an initial state, the instructions describe a computation that proceeds through a well-defined, though not necessarily deterministic, series of successive states, eventually terminating in a final ending state. |
