  • Abstract
    Algorithm and its importance have been received consensus in numerous colleges and universities. But, for the reason of learning algorithm requiring profound knowledge of mathematics and computers, and for the complexity and boringness of itself, it is difficult for students to keep learning algorithm all the time. In this paper, a method for improving students´ interests in algorithm by adding it to many sorts of programming is proposed and practiced. Experiments show that adding algorithm to programming can increase students´ interest efficiently and improve teaching quality greatly.
