Algorithms Informatively, an algorithm is any well-defined computational procedure that takes an input value or set of values and produces an output value or set of values. Thus, a sequence of computational steps that transform the input into the output is an algorithm. An algorithm can also be thought of as a tool for resolving a specific computational problem. The desired input-output relationship is outlined in general terms in the problem statement. A specific computational procedure for establishing that input-output relationship is outlined in the algorithm.
