what is the use of a map before you travel? Algorithm is kind of a map and travel is solving problems

There is lot of help you get after learning algorithms.

Say you know all kind sorting techniques. Assume now you have to create a application where sorting comes into picture. So how you will select the good sorting technique out of them.? Well, it may be depending on the input items to be sorted,executio n time etc.....

If you don't know algorithms, you will come up with your own way of doing things and it may be costly when it comes to memory and time.(Believe me, you will end up in using too much memory and consume a lot of time too)
