Drawing Algorithms

An algorithm, drawn by a 21-year-old female physics teaching student in Turkey.

Can you draw how an algorithm works? I really have no idea about algorithms. Have you heard of algorithms before? I’ve heard, yes. When did you hear about the algorithms? In what context did you hear about them? I don't remember when I heard of it, but when I think of algorithms, technology and the Internet comes to my mind. And something like solving something comes to my mind. I’m thinking about its drawing. For some reason I think of a robot when you say algorithm. I can draw it. A robot comes to my mind. Solving things comes to my mind. When we say how an algorithm works… How an algorithm works... First.. I cannot think of anything. I’m thinking. First of all, a problem is determined, and then it is about the inclusion of technology in our lives in a way that makes our lives easier. So, this may be the way the algorithm works. Can you draw this? I can’t do anything. For example, hmm, the thing that I talked about with my friends came up. I’m interested in theater. We talked about a play and its ad appeared. We were scared that they were listening to us. I remembered that. How do you think that these ads show up? So we think that the phones or the digital devices around us show up the things we talk about, because it detects these and searches for them on the Internet. Then it allows us to find them easily. But I don't know how they do it. OK, is that all? Thank you, You are welcome.
