Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

An algorithm is a step-by-step procedure for solving a problem in a finite number of steps. An heuristic, in this context, has two related definitions: a problem-solving technique in which a solution is selected by weighing alternatives; an algorithm for solving problems by learning from the results of previous attempts to solve the same problem.
