"<p>To put it simply, an algorithm is a recipe or a set of instructions for solving a specific problem. An algorithm consists of predefined individual steps that lead to the optimal solution of the problem to be addressed.<br />\nExamples of algorithms in bioinformatics can be found, for example, in sequence analysis where algorithms (e.g. Smith-Waterman, Needleman-Wunsch &amp; BLAST) are used to compare observed sequences with known sequences, e.g. from a database, and thus obtain knowledge about their origin or function.</p>\n"
