Algorithms to solve real life issues

When we started this course, I didn’t know what to expect. To me algorithms was some term for something that goes behind computing and gives an output, but I never really bothered exploring what it was. As class started, I feel I was quite lost. We were discussing…

Algo-rhythms of life

This course has been as exhilarating as it has been tiring and mind-boggling. I started with just a basic understanding of the term algorithm, and now, I am thinking of algorithms day in and day out.

Algorithms and its usefulness in Life

As this course and semester comes to an end, I am starting to look at the contrast of…

It’s all the same, if you think about it.

Algorithms, Computation and HCI - Reflection

Am I wrong when I say that algorithms are representations of exactly how our brains work? Or how they should, at the very least. Because I’m a believer of them being implicit enough for…

Life with Algorithms

Algorithms can be intimidating. Like our life actually. If we consider our life as a big program, there are different algorithms that work together. The efficiency of each algorithms shapes our decisions, marks our fate. A wrong decision means your algorithm is lacking some aspects that…

Optimize your Design

Algorithms are widespread in today’s time. Today where we compute whom to meet for a perfect match, decide a place to eat which is a 100% worth the money, get instantly the videos and movies that effectively match our interests, etc. algorithms grouped together make tasks a functionality…

As Simple As an Algorithm

“It’s not man versus machine; it’s man with machine versus man without. Data and intuition are like horse and rider, and you don’t try to outrun a horse; you ride it.”
