Algorithms. The Building Blocks of Computer Programs. Green Beer Edition.
Every day we follow sets of rules, both written and unwritten, to carry out everyday tasks. Whether it’s making a peanut butter sandwich, deciding which credit card to pay off, or picking a route to work, we have a set of steps that we follow. These algorithms can be simple or complex, long or short, formal or informal. Programming computers is the process of expressing the problem we need to solve in the steps or algorithm that the computer can understand.

We’ll look at, explore, and develop some simple algorithms for solving problems in the style of computer programs. No computer is required.

And there’s beer.
