Drawing Algorithms

An algorithm, drawn by a 26-year-old male administration assistant and clerk in the US.

I didn't really make a drawing, but this is how I guess I visualize in my head. An algorithm takes your input, whether it be verbal like your voice, whether it be your search results, anything that you're looking to get, so like, I guess your requests, your questions, what you're looking for. Then, it goes into the algorithm, like the search engine or the program, whatever you're using. Then, the algorithm takes the input, it analyzes the data, your request, what you're looking for, and then it spits it out and gives you the results that you're looking. The algorithm also I feel like, stores your data, the relevant data, like the voice data, your location data, where you are. It takes this algorithm, that's pretty much all encompassing, and it takes all this various information that you probably don't even realize like your voice, where you are, the time of day that you're asking for these requests, all these sorts of things. Then, it'll give you the results. All the while, it's probably keeping all this information on it. I don't know. Where have you heard about the term algorithm before? Just various, like computer science and stuff. I have friends who use algorithms for coding, and stuff, that sort of thing. It's not what you studied though? No, it's not. I studied biology in college. So, it's a little far from what I did. I mean algorithm, if I remember correctly, it's like you use it in a math too, it's like an equation almost, I don't even remember. Okay.
