Algorithms & Computational Thinking
Learn how to break complex real-world problems into step-by-step algorithms, and understand Big-O efficiency.
What is an Algorithm?
An algorithm is an unambiguous sequence of instructions designed to solve a specific problem or compute a result in a finite number of steps.
We measure algorithm efficiency using Big-O Notation, which describes how execution time or memory requirements scale as the input size (N) grows towards infinity.
