Application development Concepts
Algorithm & Program
Algorithm:
• A step-by-step set of instructions designed to solve a problem or accomplish a task.
• A logical procedure that outlines how to perform a task.
• Help in small tasks like adding two numbers, to complex systems like sorting data or
machine learning models.
Algorithm
1. Start
2. Read side length a
3. Read side length b
4. Area = a * b
5. Print area
6. Stop
Program:
• A program is a set of instructions written in a specific programming language to perform a task
or solve a problem.
• A program is implementation of an algorithm in a language that a computer can understand
and execute.
• Programs are the building blocks of all software applications, from simple tools like calculators
to complex systems like operating systems
Difference between Algorithm & Program
An algorithm is an abstract concept for solving a problem, whereas a program is the
actual implementation of that algorithm in a specific programming language.
Function
A function is a group of related statements that work together to complete a
particular job.
Function to calculate area of rectangle.
Calling function:

Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning
Algorithms -The Foundation in AI/ML:
Algorithms are used to analyze data, identify patterns, and make predictions or decisions.
Examples:
•Classification, regression, clustering, and reinforcement learning are common algorithm types.
Functions - The Building Blocks of AI/ML:
Functions can represent individual steps within an algorithm or a specific data manipulation process.
Examples: Processing a prompt , Evaluating model's performance.
Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning
Modules: Organizing and Reusing Functions:
Example: A model for image recognition might use a module for image preprocessing
(functions to resize, normalize), a module for feature extraction (functions to identify edges,
shapes), and a module for classification (functions to predict the image's label).
Libraries: Expedite the development of AI Applications:
Libraries are collections of pre-written code that provide essential functionalities, like
algorithms and models, to simplify and expedite the development of AI applications,
allowing developers to focus on higher-level tasks instead of building everything from
scratch
Example: Common libraries include
TensorFlow and PyTorch for deep learning.
Scikit-learn for general ML tasks.
Pandas and NumPy for data manipulation and numerical operations.
Matplotlib/Seaborn for data visualization.
