What is an Algorithm?

A short video that explains informally what an algorithm is and how to compare between algorithms.

For any algorithm that we design, we should ask ourselves three questions:

• How quick is the algorithm?
• How much space does it require?
• Is it correct?

In this course, we will concentrate mainly on the basics of answering the first question. The course "Design and Analysis of Algorithms" may go deeper in answering all the three questions.
