Line 1: [[Category:Computer science]] An '''[[algorithm]]''', broadly defined, is an understandable and finite set of instructions for accomplishing some task which, given a defined set of inputs, will result in some recognisable end-state (contrast with [[heuristic]]). Algorithms often have steps that repeat ([[iteration\|iterate]]) or require decisions (such as [[Boolean logic\|logic]] or [[inequality\|comparison]]) until the task is completed.
