How is computer programming related to algebra?

Answer 1

Computer Programming is all about algebra. In algebra, you solve for variables like x and y in their simplest form, in programming, the variables can pass on values or accept values and give you the result.

For eg:

Find the area of a square with side 'a' units.

In algebra: Area=a2.

In Programming, the program can find the area by taking input from the user.

float area,a;

cout<<"Enter length of side";

cin>>a;

area=a*a;

cout<<"The area is "<

Basically, Programming is bringing algebra to life.
