Question 1:

a) Explain characteristic of an algorithm.

An algorithm is a well defined produce that allows a computer to solve a problem.

Characteristics of an algorithm are:

(i) unambiguous:

Algorithm should be clear and unambiguous. Each of its step should be clear.

(ii) input:

An algorithm …
