Damon is a high school English teacher. He provides his students with a step-by-step guide for writing "the perfect creative story." He refers to this guide as an algorithm, however, one of his students argues that it is actually a heuristic. Is this student's argument correct?
A. Yes, because the guide likely provides general rules for effective story telling but cannot guarantee a perfect outcome each time. B. Yes, because algorithms are only used by computers, when guides are used by humans they are referred to as heuristics. C. No, because the format of the guide includes sequential steps and this is the only requirement for something to be an algorithm. D. No, because the guide increases the time it takes to write a story and a heuristic must reduce the amount of time it takes to complete a task.
