1. ​Efficiency of algorithm

2. ​Difference between an algorithm and flowchart

3. ​Advantages and disadvantages

​We need to compute the following:

​1+2+3+4+...+99

​Difference between an algorithm and flowchart

​Algorithm is like a story

​

Advantages

• ​Easy to write

• ​techniques are easy to understand

• ​to solve large problems

​Flowchart is like a movie

​

​Advantages

• ​Easy to draw

• ​Easy to understand

• ​easy to identify errors

• ​easy to observe flow

​Difference between an algorithm and flowchart

​Algorithm is like a story

​

Disadvantages

• Modifying an existing algorithm is not easy

• ​Showing the flow is not easy

• Usage of goto makes it difficult to identify erros

​Flowchart is like a movie

​

​Disadvantages

• ​More time is required

• ​Modifyng is not easy

• ​Not suitable for large problems
