Here we briefly survey some known quantum algorithms, with an emphasis on a broad overview of their applications rather than their technical details.

What Is an Algorithm? An algorithm is a set of instructions for solving a problem or accomplishing a task. One common example of an algorithm is a recipe, which consists of specific instructions ...

What’s the Deal With Algorithms? Your 101 guide to the computer codes that are shaping the ways we live.

As software and algorithms become an increasingly pervasive part of our lives, there’s growing interest and concern on how they are affecting society, the economy, and politics. Yet, most social ...

So, an algorithm is the process a computer uses to transform input data into output data. A simple concept, and yet every piece of technology that you touch involves many algorithms.

It may be that life is just an example of Grover’s quantum search at work, and that this algorithm is itself a fundamental property of nature. That’s a Big Idea if ever there was one.

At the first VidCon since 2019, YouTube's top earner in the U.S., MrBeast, got on stage to talk to YouTube's director of discovery Todd Beaupré about one ...

A study published Thursday in Science has found that a health care risk-prediction algorithm, a major example of tools used on more than 200 million people in the U.S., demonstrated racial bias ...

The Luhn algorithm—also known as the “Modulus 10 algorithm”—is a formula used to determine the accuracy of credit card numbers.
