                  Writing an Algorithm


                  Let us learn how to write an algorithm.

                  Algorithm to find product, sum and difference of two numbers.

                  Step 1     Start.
                  Step 2     Read two numbers and store them in A and B.

                  Step 3     Multiply two numbers A and B.
                  Step 4    Print the product.

                  Step 5     Add two numbers A and B.
                  Step 6     Print the sum.

                  Step 7     Subtract the number B from the number A.

                  Step 8     Print the difference.
                  Step 9     Stop.


                  Algorithm to find the smallest in two numbers A and B.
                  Step 1     Start.

                  Step 2     Read two numbers and store them in A and B.

                  Step 3     Compare numbers A and B. If A is less than B, print "A is smallest" and go to Step 5.
                  Step 4     Compare numbers A and B. If B is less than A, print "B is smallest" and go to Step 5.

                  Step 5     Stop.
