What happens if there is a mistake in an algorithm, such as overcooking or undercooking noodles when making spaghetti?

• The task will take longer to complete.

• The final outcome will not be as good.

• The algorithm will automatically correct itself.

• The technology will stop functioning.

How do computers differ from humans in using algorithms?

• Computers can only use algorithms for simple tasks.

• Humans can calculate things faster than computers.

• Computers can use algorithms and calculate things better, faster, and more efficiently.
