Why is it masculine?
Algorithmes is masculine. While the word does derive from Al-Khwarizmi's name through Latin "algoritmus," the masculine gender is better explained by the word's adoption into French as a learned term in mathematics and later computer science. French mathematical and scientific terminology often preserves masculine gender from Latin, particularly for abstract nouns ending in -me that entered French as technical vocabulary rather than everyday words. The -me ending does typically mark feminine nouns in French (like "femme," "homme" historically, "forme"), but "algorithme" represents a specialized exception where the Latin masculine form was retained in the technical register.
