One thing that made me understand algorithms, is having to learn them to solve a Rubik’s cube. There’s repeated steps taken to solve any cube puzzle–any moving puzzle really. But, those repeated patterns are algorithms. I solve the Rubik’s cube the same way every time. If I mess up, cause I’m certainly no pro, that means I missed a completed turn in the algorithm, and I usually have to start over, or find where the pattern left off.
