Inputs
Refer to the data that is read by the algorithm from an external source, such as keyboard

input

‫ ﻣﺜﻞ ﻣﺪﺧﻼت ﻟﻮﺣﺔ اﻟﻤﻔﺎﺗﯿﺢ‬،‫اﻟﺒﯿﺎﻧﺎت اﻟﺘﻲ ﺗﻘﺮأھﺎ اﻟﺨﻮارزﻣﯿﺔ ﻣﻦ ﻣﺼﺪر ﺧﺎرﺟﻲ‬

Output
The output of an algorithm defines the results that must be achieved upon its completion

‫ﯾﺤﺪد ﻧﺎﺗﺞ اﻟﺨﻮارزﻣﯿﺔ اﻟﻨﺘﺎﺋﺞ اﻟﺘﻲ ﯾﺠﺐ ﺗﺤﻘﯿﻘﮭﺎ ﻋﻨﺪ اﻛﺘﻤﺎﻟﮭﺎ‬

Characteristics of an Algorithm

‫ﺧﺼﺎﺋﺺ اﻟﺨﻮارزﻣﯿﺔ‬

9
Characteristics of an algorithm ?

● Clear and Unambiguous ‫واﺿﺢ ﻻ ﻟﺒﺲ ﻓﯿﮫ‬

Each of its steps should be clear in all aspects and must lead to only one meaning.

.‫وﯾﻨﺒﻐﻲ أن ﺗﻜﻮن ﻛﻞ ﺧﻄﻮة ﻣﻦ ﺧﻄﻮاﺗﮭﺎ واﺿﺤﺔ ﻣﻦ ﺟﻤﯿﻊ اﻟﺠﻮاﻧﺐ وأن ﺗﻔﻀﻲ إﻟﻰ ﻣﻌﻨﻰ واﺣﺪ ﻓﻘﻂ‬

11
Characteristics of an algorithm ?

● Well-Defined Inputs ‫ﻣﺪﺧﻼت ﻣﺤﺪدة ﺟﯿﺪًا‬

Algorithm’s inputs should be well-defined

‫ﯾﺠﺐ أن ﺗﻜﻮن ﻣﺪﺧﻼت اﻟﺨﻮارزﻣﯿﺔ ﻣﺤﺪدة ﺟﯿﺪًا‬

12
Characteristics of an algorithm ?

● Well-Defined Outputs ‫ﻣﺨﺮﺟﺎت ﻣﺤﺪدة ﺟﯿﺪًا‬

The algorithm must clearly define what output will be yielded and it should be well-defined

as well

.‫ﯾﺠﺐ أن ﺗﺤﺪد اﻟﺨﻮارزﻣﯿﺔ ﺑﻮﺿﻮح اﻟﻤﺨﺮﺟﺎت اﻟﺘﻲ ﺳﯿﺘﻢ ﺗﺤﻘﯿﻘﮭﺎ وﯾﺠﺐ أن ﺗﻜﻮن ﻣﺤﺪدة ﺟﯿﺪًا أﯾﻀًﺎ‬

13
Characteristics of an algorithm ?

● Finiteness ‫اﻻﻧﺘﮭﺎء‬

The algorithm must be finite, i.e. it should terminate after a finite time

‫ أي ﯾﺠﺐ أن ﺗﻨﺘﮭﻲ ﺑﻌﺪ وﻗﺖ ﻣﺤﺪود‬،‫ﯾﺠﺐ أن ﺗﻜﻮن اﻟﺨﻮارزﻣﯿﺔ ﻣﺤﺪودة‬

14
Characteristics of an algorithm ?

● Feasible ‫ﻗﺎﺑﻞ ﻟﻠﺘﻨﻔﯿﺬ‬

The algorithm must be simple, generic, and practical, such that it can be executed with the

available resources

‫ﯾﺠﺐ أن ﺗﻜﻮن اﻟﺨﻮارزﻣﯿﺔ ﺑﺴﯿﻄﺔ وﻋﺎﻣﺔ وﻋﻤﻠﯿﺔ ﺑﺤﯿﺚ ﯾﻤﻜﻦ ﺗﻨﻔﯿﺬھﺎ ﺑﺎﻟﻤﻮارد اﻟﻤﺘﺎﺣﺔ‬

15
Characteristics of an algorithm ?

● Language Independent ‫ﻟﻐﺔ ﻣﺴﺘﻘﻠﺔ‬

The Algorithm must be just plain instructions that can be implemented in any language, and

yet the output will be the same

‫ وﻣﻊ ذﻟﻚ ﺳﯿﻜﻮن اﻟﻤﺨﺮج ھﻮ ﻧﻔﺴﮫ‬،‫ﯾﺠﺐ أن ﺗﻜﻮن اﻟﺨﻮارزﻣﯿﺔ ﻣﺠﺮد ﺗﻌﻠﯿﻤﺎت واﺿﺤﺔ ﯾﻤﻜﻦ ﺗﻨﻔﯿﺬھﺎ ﺑﺄي ﻟﻐﺔ‬
