Computation refers to the process of performing mathematical operations or processing information according to a defined set of rules or algorithms. It encompasses a wide variety of activities, from simple arithmetic calculations to complex problem-solving tasks performed by computers. Key aspects of computation include: 1. **Algorithms**: These are step-by-step procedures or formulas for solving problems. Algorithms form the basis of computation, guiding how inputs are transformed into outputs.
