    An algorithm is a set of precise instructions to solve a problem or complete a task. We use algorithms every day without realizing it, such as when following a recipe or getting dressed. Algorithms must be completed in the correct order to work properly. Common examples of algorithms include traveling to school, getting dressed, and the processes computers use to perform tasks.

    Aim

    • To understand and follow algorithms.


    What Is an Algorithm?
    An algorithm is a precise set of instructions that you follow to solve a problem or
    complete a task.

    We use algorithms all the time without even realising it.


    Recipes
    When you follow a recipe, you follow instructions to complete a task.

    The instructions are a step-by-step procedure that need to be followed for your
    recipe to be successful.
    Travelling to School
    You follow an algorithm in order to arrive at school safely.

    For example:
    1.Get in car.
    2.Be driven along Balgillo Road.
    3.Turn right into Falkland Crescent.
    4.Car stops at end of road.
    5.Get out of car.
    6.Walk towards school gates.
    What would be your algorithm for
    travelling to school?
    Getting Dressed
    You follow a step-by-step procedure to get dressed in your school uniform every
    morning.

    For example:
    1.Put on underwear and socks.
    2.Put on trousers.
    3.Put on shirt, followed by tie.
    4.Put on jumper.
    5.Put on shoes.
    The Order of Algorithms
    Algorithms need to happen in the correct order.

    What would happen if you put your coat on before


    your school shirt?

    Or you put your shoes on before your socks?


    Algorithms in Technology
    Digital devices all follow algorithms in order for them to work.

    You use an algorithm to tell a computer what to do.

    Everything you can do on a computer is able to happen because an algorithm


    has been written for it.

    Clicking a mouse, opening a word document and playing a game are all
    examples of things that have algorithms.
    Create Your Own Algorithm
    Think of things you do every day that you need to follow a set of instructions
    for.
    Remember that algorithms must be detailed and written in the correct
    order.

    Write an algorithm of your


    own for something you do
    every day.

    Ask someone else if they


    understand your algorithm
    and if they would be able to
    follow it.
