<prompt> Algorithm e etsa eng?nan  <response>: Instruction in English: What does an algorithm do? . Response in English: An algorithm is a sequence of step-by-step instructions or a set of rules used to solve a specific problem, perform a task or accomplish a particular goal. In computer science, algorithms are used in programming, where they form a basis for designing and writing computer programs that perform specific tasks such as searching, sorting or data analysis. They are also used in various other fields, including mathematics, engineering and finance, to solve problems and make decisions. An algorithm, by itself, does not perform any action; instead, it serves as a blueprint or guide for a computer or a human to carry out the defined process or task. . Response in Sesotho: Algorithm ke tatellano ea litaelo tsa mohato ka mohato kapa melao e sebelisoang ho rarolla bothata bo itseng, ho etsa mosebetsi kapa ho finyella sepheo se itseng. Ho saense ea khomphieutha, li-algorithms li sebelisoa lenaneong, moo li theha motheo oa ho rala le ho ngola mananeo a khomphieutha a etsang mesebetsi e itseng e kang ho batla, ho hlophisa kapa ho hlahloba lintlha. Li boetse li sebelisoa mafapheng a mang a fapaneng, ho kenyelletsa lipalo, boenjiniere le lichelete, ho rarolla mathata le ho etsa liqeto. Algorithm, ka boeona, ha e etse ketso leha e le efe; ho e-na le hoo, e sebetsa e le polane kapa tataiso bakeng sa khomphieutha kapa motho ho phetha tšebetso kapa mosebetsi o hlalositsoeng.
