Algebraic specification is a formal method used in computer science for defining abstract data types and their behaviors. It leverages the principles of algebra to specify the properties and operations of a data type in a precise and mathematical way. Here are the key components and concepts associated with algebraic specification: 1. **Abstract Data Types (ADTs)**: An algebraic specification defines an ADT by specifying its operations and the relations between them without defining their implementation.
