1.2 Characteristics of Algorithm

1. 1Identify the input requirements for an algorithm
2. 2Determine the expected output of an algorithm
3. 3Ensure every statement in the algorithm is clear and unambiguous
4. 4Verify that the algorithm will eventually terminate
5. 5Assess the effectiveness of the algorithm in solving the problem

Software engineers and developers can benefit from understanding these characteristics to write more efficient and effective algorithms

💡 An algorithm must have a clear input, produce a useful output, be well-defined, terminate in a finite number of steps, and be effective in solving the problem
