In mathematics and computer science, an algorithm is a step-by-step procedure for calculations. Algorithms are used for calculation, data processing, and automated reasoning.Algorithms resemble recipes. Recipes tell you how to accomplish a task by performing a number of steps.
For example, to bake a cake the steps are: preheat the
oven; mix flour, sugar, and eggs thoroughly; pour into a baking pan; and so forth.
