Representation of algorithms
- Algorithms can be designed using pseudo-code and/or Flow charts.
- They are written using statements and expressions.
- Pseudocode is more concise and clear than structured English.
- Representing your problem solution with a flow chart or pseudocode allows you to concentrate on the logic.
- The representation of an algorithm is extremally important.
- It must rapidly convey the algorithm's meaning with the least amount of effort by the reader.
- The best representation for one algorithm may be the worst for another.
- Algorithm are generally representation by either,
- Verbal
- Algebraic
- Tabular
- Hierarchical
- Data Flow Diagram
- Flow chart
- Pseudo code
