                                     Hello Techie! what does                       Flowchart
                                     algorithmic intelligence mean?                System Map to Show Relationships
                                                                                   Debugging Instructions to Fix Errors

                        It’s when a computer follows a set

                       of steps, known as an algorithm, to
                                          solve a problem.

                                      So, if I tell a robot to sort blocks
                                      by colour and then by size, that’s
                                      algorithmic intelligence?

                                                                                 Exactly! The robot follows
                                                                                       these steps in order.

                                      Can the computer make its own
                                      decisions?

                                                                        No, it only follows the steps given
                                                                        in the algorithm. Now, let’s learn
                                                                              how to write an algorithm.

                                                                                  Algorithms, Flowcharts and System Maps  63
