An algorithm provides instructions for solving a specific set of problems through calculations, automated reasoning, and data processing. It outlines a computation that, when executed, progresses through a finite number of states to generate an output. Typically implemented in software within computer systems, algorithms transform input into output. They can be categorized based on implementation, design paradigm, optimization problems, among others, into various types. Examples of algorithm types include deterministic and non-deterministic algorithms, randomized algorithms, recursion, and logical algorithms, and more. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts in the field of algorithm. The topics covered herein deal with the core aspects of this area. It will also serve as a reference guide for students and academicians.
