History The term "algorithm"

The word algorithm is derived from the name of a mathematician latinisasi of Uzbekistan Al Khwarizmi (lived around the 9th century), as contained in his works in Latin translations of the 12th century "de numero Indorum Algorithmi". At first the word algorisma is a term that refers to the rules of arithmetic to solve numerical problems using Arabic numbers (actually from India, as written on the title above). In the 18 th century, the term evolved into an algorithm, which includes all procedures or a clear sequence of steps necessary to resolve a problem. Problems arise when will pour how the process that must be passed in a / a system (program) for the computer so that at the time of his execution, the computer can work as expected. Computer programmers will be more comfortable pouring computational procedure or sequence of process steps by first making a picture (flow chart) on paper.
