Algorithms are a series of steps that, when combined, form the basis of a computer program. A flowchart is a visual representation of the algorithm.

GCSE Eduqas Algorithms - Eduqas Designing algorithms with flowcharts Algorithms are step-by-step plans for solving problems. They are a starting point when writing a program.

Flowcharts belong to the structured programming era and aren’t as useful in an object-oriented context. In contrast, the Unified Modeling Language (UML) is more appropriate for creating object ...

KS3 Introduction to programming Creating a program from an algorithm Programming is writing computer code to create a program, in order to solve a problem.

To clear things up, I drew you this flowchart on the back of an envelope so you can work out whether something is using AI or not. This originally appeared in our AI newsletter The Algorithm.

Machine-learning algorithms are responsible for the vast majority of the artificial intelligence advancements and applications you hear about. (For more background, check out our first flowchart ...

Open in Viewer Fig 1. Algorithm flowchart. Flowchart of how the algorithm was used to identify incident epithelial ovarian cancer cases.

Part of the issue, though, is that machine-learning algorithms are effectively programming themselves, meaning that they can sometimes be unpredictable, or even slightly alien.

One hundred and fifty years before the computer became a household item, English mathematician Ada Lovelace wrote the first computer algorithm. The Guardian reports that a first-edition manuscript ...
