At their most complex, algorithms are the step-by-step processes behind search engines, data compression, and more. However, algorithms are present in basic forms throughout our daily lives, like following a recipe or giving directions to your house.

It describes how algorithms help computer programs complete tasks and challenges readers to think critically about the effectiveness of particular algorithms over others.
