Characteristics of an Algorithm:
1. Unambiguous − Algorithm should be clear and unambiguous. Each of its steps (or phases), and their input/outputs should be clear and must lead to only one meaning.
2. Input − An algorithm should have 0 or more well defined inputs.
3. Output − An algorithm should have 1 or more well defined outputs, and should match the desired output.
4. Finiteness − Algorithms must terminate after a finite number of steps.
5. Feasibility − Should be feasible with the available resources.
6. Independent − An algorithm should have step-by-step directions which should be independent of any programming code.
