 ## Unit 1: Foundations
 
-First, I assume that you know overall the importance of algorithms and what an algorithm is. But from this unit I hope you will gain a better understanding of what kinds of problems are solved by algorithms. Also you will become familiar with the framework we will use throughout the course to think about the design and analysis of algorithms.
