Drawing Algorithms

An algorithm, drawn by a 48-year-old female who works in two offices with a focus on trade and law in Switzerland.

Can you draw me how an algorithm works or what algorithm means? I'd leave it on, so you can explain it directly. Because algorithm, I understand something that repeats. In certain systems. So I draw steps, they repeat. Yes, there's a gradual progression. Ah, yes. That I understand. Gradual. Something that repeats itself without end. That's how I understand algorithm. I don't know, maybe I spelled it wrong. It's correct. This direction. Okay. So how did you hear about algorithms? Well, that's obvious. In mathematics. In math, there are certain rules, according to algorithms we do certain tasks and so on. Primarily in math. Mathematics, computer science, yes. Mathematics that's not right, that's computer science. In computer science, everything works on the basis of a certain algorithm. That's why, for example, I'm not a computer scientist, I'm not a specialist in computer science, you [an IT specialist] write special algorithms. You repeat and you make a program. A program based on... it can be an algorithm. It can be two algorithms, it can be three algorithms, and somewhere a program comes. That's made up of them? Yes. It's like this. Only primarily, not mathematics, more computer science. It comes from mathematics, but computer science uses it more, algorithm. But mathematics first. And from there, computer science develops and then comes the algorithm for these programs, you use them on the computer and so on. Ok, very interesting.
