Algorithms,

in mathematics and computer science, methods for solving a problem expressed as a finite sequence of instructions. The term “algorithm” is derived from the name of Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī (born approximately 780 in Khwarezm, died between 835 and 850), the Persian mathematician, astronomer, geographer, and scholar in the House of Wisdom in Baghdad, from the Khorasan province of present-day Uzbekistan [2] .
