algorithmFrom The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.44 : [ gcide ]A detailed sequence of actions to perform to accomplish some task. Named after an Iranian mathematician, Al-Khawarizmi. Technically, an algorithm must reach a result after a finite number of steps, thus ruling out brute force search methods for certain problems, though some might claim that brute force search was also a valid (generic) algorithm. The term is also used loosely for any sequence of actions (which may or may not terminate). Paul E. Black's Dictionary of Algorithms, Data Structures, http://www.nist.gov/dads/)" rel="nofollow">and Problems (http://www.nist.gov/dads/). (2002-02-05)
