A simple, attractive teaching innovation method makes easier for the students the complex world of algorithms

Thanks to the capacity to communicate our thoughts by algorithms we can create machines whose behaviour simulates intelligence to a certain extent. The level simulated by the machine is limited by the intelligence we can communicate by means of algorithms. An algorithm is a finite whole of instructions or steps useful to execute a task… Seguir Leyendo A simple, attractive teaching innovation method makes easier for the students the complex world of algorithms
