Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA-1), a cryptographic hash function used for producing hash “digests” (each 40 hexadecimal characters long), can be considered a good algorithm.

Learn what an algorithm is and how they can be represented in Bitesize KS3 Computer Science.

So, an algorithm is the process a computer uses to transform input data into output data. A simple concept, and yet every piece of technology that you touch involves many algorithms.

Learn what an algorithm is with this KS1 primary computing guide from BBC Bitesize for years 1 and 2. We will define what an algorithm is and how they work.

Many researchers in the field of machine learning — especially the connectionists — believe that the deep learning model is the answer to all the problems of AI and consider it a master algorithm.

Most algorithm-based funds in the UK are easier to fathom and have the advantage that they can be cheaper - in terms of annual charges - than traditional funds run by investment managers.
