A developer is creating specific step-by-step instructions/procedures and conditional statements that will be used by a computer program to solve problems. Which of the following is being developed?

Software
Application
Algorithm
Script

The correct answer is: Algorithm

A Software and B: Application are incorrect because both options refer to a complete and executable computer program, whereas the question specifically mentions creating step-by-step instructions and conditional statements, which are smaller components of a program. D: Script is incorrect because scripts typically contain a series of commands and actions to be executed by a computer, but may not necessarily include conditional statements or specific procedures. C: Algorithm is the correct answer because it specifically refers to a set of defined steps and procedures used to solve a problem or complete a task. In this case, the developer is creating an algorithm that will be used by a computer program to solve problems.
