A lot of Car Talk Puzzlers are classic examples of what computer scientists think about when learning to build algorithms. Above, Click and Clack (Ray and Tom Magliozzi) of Car Talk.

Researchers have devised a new framework for designing machine learning algorithms that helps prevent intelligent machines from being biased.

So, an algorithm is the process a computer uses to transform input data into output data. A simple concept, and yet every piece of technology that you touch involves many algorithms.

What is an algorithm? Algorithms are one of the four cornerstones of Computer Science. An algorithm is a plan, a set of step-by-step instructions to solve a problem.

A teenage programmer explores the concept of writing algorithms by creating step-by-step instructions to teach her computer a dance routine. Suitable for teaching at KS3, KS4 and National 4 and 5.
