Introduction
In order to better understand the digital tools used in the different activities, we used images (e.g. screenshots), although these images belong to the owners of these tools.
A computer program consists of several lines of code that give instructions to the computer, i.e. what to do and when. At its root, an algorithm is a finite sequence of ordered instructions. When we run a program, the computer reads it and follows all the instructions it contains. Algorithms help us and computers solve a wide variety of problems.
