What are algorithms? Search and Sort algorithms? Why learn them?

Algorithms are a set of instructions used to solve a problem or complete a task.

Search algorithms are used to search for a particular item within a given collection of data.

Sort algorithms are used to arrange a set of data items in a particular order.

Algorithms are essential for the efficient functioning of computer systems and software applications.

Learning algorithms is important for software development, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science.

Examples of algorithms include quicksort, binary search, knapsack problem, Floyd–Warshall algorithm, and the A* search algorithm.

Knowing algorithms helps us to understand the efficiency of different approaches to solving a problem, allowing us to choose the best solution for a particular problem.
