    Explanation
    This answer is correct because it accurately describes the concept of algorithm finiteness. Finiteness in an algorithm means that it will eventually stop or terminate after a finite number of steps. This ensures that the algorithm does not run indefinitely and allows for predictable and manageable execution.

    • E.

      Algorithm structuring on the elements in order of importance

    Correct Answer
    A. Distribution the task solving process on separate operation that are performed by individual commands
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Discreteness - is the algorithm property, which consists in distribution the task solving process on separate operation that are performed by individual commands." This means that in a discrete algorithm, the task is broken down into separate operations or commands that are performed one at a time. This allows for clear and specific instructions to be given, making the algorithm easier to understand and follow. Additionally, the algorithm is designed to be completed after a certain number of commands, ensuring that it will eventually reach a solution.

    Implementation of modern information technology is based on the construction and use of algorithms. Indicate which of the documents is the algorithm:

    • A.

      Instructions for money obtaining from an ATM

    • B.

      Rules of safety

    • C.

      Timetable

    • D.

      List of students

    • E.

      Picture

    Correct Answer
    A. Instructions for money obtaining from an ATM
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Instructions for money obtaining from an ATM" because an algorithm is a step-by-step set of instructions for solving a problem or completing a task. The instructions for obtaining money from an ATM provide a clear sequence of steps to follow in order to withdraw money from the machine, making it an algorithm. The other options, such as rules of safety, timetable, list of students, and picture, do not provide a set of instructions for solving a problem or completing a task, and therefore do not qualify as algorithms.

    The algorithm includes ramification if:

    • A.

      Its progress depends on the truth of certain conditions

    • B.

    Correct Answer
    A. Its progress depends on the truth of certain conditions
    Explanation
    The correct answer is that the algorithm includes ramification if its progress depends on the truth of certain conditions. This means that the algorithm has different paths or branches based on whether certain conditions are true or false. This allows for different actions or steps to be taken depending on the specific conditions that are met during the execution of the algorithm.

    C. The process of medicines choice and prescribing
    D. The process of medicines preparing
    E. The process of medicines sales
    Explanation
    An algorithm is a set of rules or instructions to solve a problem or perform a specific task. In this case, all the options mentioned involve a set of rules or processes related to medicines. "Medicines using rules" indicates the use of specific guidelines or protocols for administering medicines. "The process of medicines choice and prescribing" refers to the steps involved in selecting and prescribing appropriate medications. "The process of medicines preparing" involves the procedures for preparing medications. "The process of medicines sales" indicates the steps involved in selling medicines. Therefore, all the options mentioned can be considered algorithms as they involve a set of rules or processes related to medicines.

    Correct Answer
    A. Order
    Explanation
    The algorithm's basic structural element is the "Order". This suggests that the algorithm follows a specific sequence or arrangement in order to perform a task or solve a problem. It implies that there is a predefined order or set of steps that need to be followed in order to achieve the desired outcome. The other options, such as "Cell", "Test", "Sign", and "Symbol", do not convey the same sense of structure or sequence as the concept of "Order" does.
