An algorithm is a set of instructions used to solve a problem or perform a computation. Algorithms can use conditionals and automated reasoning to achieve automation, while heuristics are approaches to problem solving that may not guarantee correct results. Algorithms are expressed in a formal language and require a finite amount of space and time to execute.
