What is an Algorithm?
An algorithm can be broadly defined as;
• A process or a set of rules to be followed to achieve
desired output, especially by a computer.
• A step-by-step procedure, to solve the different kinds of
problems.
• An unambiguous sequence of computational steps that
transform the input into the output.
• An algorithm is any well-defined computational procedure that
takes some value, or a set of values as input and produces
some value, or a set of values as output.

Characteristics of an Algorithm
Precision: Each step of an algorithm must be precisely defined.
Input: An algorithm accepts zero or more inputs.
Output: An algorithm must generate at least one desirable output.
Finiteness: An algorithm must always terminate after a finite
number of steps.
Effectiveness: All the operations to be performed in the algorithm
must be essential and sufficiently basic.
Generality: The algorithm should be expressed in a generic form
and must be applicable to a set of all possible inputs.

4. Multiplication by divide and conquer
• Both the multiplicand and the multiplier must have the same
number of digits and this number be a power of 2.
• If not then it can be done by adding zeros on the left if
necessary.

Sequences: A sequence of objects is a list of objects in some
order.
Example: the sequence 7, 21, 57 would be written as (7, 21, 57)
In a set the order does not matter but in a sequence it does.
Repetition is not permitted in a set but repetition is permitted in a
sequence. So, (7, 7, 21, 57) is different from (7, 21, 57).
Tuples: Finite sequences are called tuples.
Examples:
1. (7, 21) 2-tuple or pair
2. (7, 21, 57) 3-tuple
3. (7, 21, ..., k ) k-tuple

Relation
Let and be two sets. Any subset of their Cartesian product is a
relation.
A relation defines the relationship between sets of values.
It is defined between the x-values and y-values of the ordered
pairs.
The set of all x-values is called the domain, and the set of all y-
values is called the range.

Equivalence Relation
Equivalence Relation declares or shows some kind of equality or
equivalence.
If the relation satisfies all three properties reflexive, symmetric
and transitive then it is called an Equivalence Relation.
Equality ‘=’ relation is the equivalence relation because equality
proves the required conditions.
1. Reflexive: is true for all values of .
2. Symmetric: and is true for all values of and .
3. Transitive: if and is true for all values then we can say that .

Functions
Relationship between two sets of numbers is known as a function.
Function is a special kind of relation.
A number in one set is mapped to a number in another set by the
function.

related to its age using the function :
