Answer: c. Algorithms are the steps that would be converted into a program that a computer could use to process information, changing it from input to an output.
Explanation: algorithms are steps that is used for data processing. It’s better to think of this as a flow chart. The input (usually from the user) goes in, the algorithm processes the information (this is where the input changes to an output), and spits out the output. This is the best answer out of all the options.
