Question

The origin of the concept Algaritma?

Answer 1

The actual term 'algorithm' is often cited as originated from the 9th Century Persian mathematician Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Musa Al-Khwarizmi. Wow, that's quite a name but he's also known as "the father of Algebra". In fact, Al-Khwarizmi built on the work of Brahmagupta. Both of these two gentlemen were immortalized when the term "algorism" was coined to refer to Latin translations of their arithmetic rules by using Hindi-Arabic numerals. Around the 18th century "Allegorism" became the modern "algorithm". The use of the word evolved to include all definite procedures for solving problems or performing tasks.
