Drawing Algorithms

An algorithm, drawn by a 24-year-old male bachelor student of philosophy and politics in Germany.

Now I would ask you again briefly to explain that. Well I think that's because what I've somehow noticed from movies or school is that an algorithm is yes/that somehow checks how something or looks at how it progresses and then somehow analyzes that and can also give forecasts for the future. It would then simply/ That was now/ That is now just so/ Line to show that it is so, so // What does the line show, so to speak? So that just shows what the forecast could be like or what it is like now, I'd say. So the heights, the higher ones // That something there / That the situation then somehow becomes more acute or something. I don't know what I'm referring to now. As far as mathematics is concerned, I wasn't that good either. Yes. Yes, but that's how I would do it // Yes, so predictions would/can you simply refer to a concrete example? To the economy, I think, then that if there's such a big upheaval here, that you're here right now; that it's going straight downhill // Okay. So there are predictions about what could happen, which then the algorithm so to speak/ That's printed like this. Does that come out of the algorithm, right? I think so. So that's a line you use to say what it's going to be like and what it's like right now and that you're making forecasts. Okay. Good. Great. So the general question is: How did you learn something about how algorithms work? Well, now that I don't really know what that/ Well, I can't really describe it - actually not at all - but, I know that, I think only movies or something. For example in: "No limit", where Bradley Cooper looked at the stock market/ looked at algorithms to see how things would go with the companies. So that's/ you watched a movie and you found out about it, so to speak. Yes.
