    d. You must create an algorithm for a problem before you can create a program to solve the problem

    Explanation:

    a. Algorithms are described informally and can contain ambiguous steps.

    "a" option is incorrect because an algorithm must be clear on each step

    b. Algorithms are written in a programming language.

    "b" option is incorrect because algorithms can be written in pseudocode (which is not a programming language).

    c. Algorithms can replace the source code in programs.

    "c" option is incorrect because source code of a program is written in one or more programming languages, therefore, an algorithm must be written in the same language of the program. For example, an algorithm in pseucocode is not going to work in a program written with python language.

    d. You must create an algorithm for a problem before you can create a program to solve the problem.

    "d" option is correct, in order to write code you must previously undertand what do you want to do.
