The information age is built on mathematics. From finding the best route between two points, predicting the future load on a national power grid or tomorrow’s weather, to identifying ideal treatment options for diseases, algorithms share a common structure: they take input data, process it through a series of calculations, and deliver an output.The information age is built on mathematics.
