direction
Algorithm:
1. Understand the problem:
- Clearly define the problem and understand the requirements.
2. Analyze the problem:
- Break down the problem into smaller subproblems.
- Determine the input, output, and constraints of the problem.
3. Design the algorithm:
- Determine the steps to solve the problem.
- Consider different techniques such as iteration, recursion, and branching.
4. Implement the algorithm:
- Write the algorithm in a specific programming language or pseudocode.
5. Test the algorithm:
- Test the algorithm with different inputs to ensure it produces the correct output.
6. Evaluate and optimize the algorithm:
- Analyze the algorithm's efficiency and make improvements if necessary.
