What we will look at

• What are Algorithms?

• We will look at the folowing :

  • Find
  • Find_All
  • Find_smallest
  • Find_biggest

• Codewars

• Logic-shapper

What are Algorithms

• Add more later
• Show 2 examples

Code example

• What decisions you make dailly that you can fomulate an algorithm with.
• Give them a dataset to work with.
• Code find algo with them.
• In Pairs of two, how can you attemp Find_All?
• Review 2-3 algo attemps
• Code the rest with them
• Use ES with the last two?

Explore more algorithms

• Codewars (pick two 8kyu)
• Logic shapper

Closing

• What suprised you?
• Go explore more algorithms (Codewars)
