The incorrect statement about an algorithm is:
D. It is dependent on a particular programming language.
Explanation: An algorithm is a set of well-defined steps or instructions to solve a problem, and it is independent of programming languages. An algorithm can be implemented in multiple programming languages but is not bound to any specific one. The other options (A, B, and C) correctly describe essential characteristics of algorithms.
