An algorithm is a process or sequence of events that leads to some solution.
Ex. Put this in y = mx + b --> 3x - y = 5
The algorithm for this would be:
1) Initial --> 3x - y = 5
2) Place terms with x on the right side
3) Divide both sides by -
4) End --> y = mx + b --> y = 3x - 5
Note: another algorithm would be to add y to both sides and subtract 5 from both sides.
