[[Image:TheAlgorithm.jpg|thumb|right|A mysterious algorithm, believed by [[Mohinder]] to be a key to locating [[:Category:Evolved Humans|Evolved Humans]].]] |
|||
'''The algorithm''' appears to be a complex mathematical formula which can be used to locate [[:Category:Evolved Humans|Evolved Humans]]. [[Mohinder]] tells [[Eden]] that he believes [[Chandra Suresh|his father]] was working on such a formula. Later, [[Eden]] discovers a USB flash drive half-buried in the gravel of the [[Mohinder the lizard|lizard Mohinder]]'s terrarium. Mohinder plugs it into his father's laptop and the algorithm appears. |
|||
Initially excited by the discovery, Mohinder has become frustrated by his inability to understand the algorithm, which he now believes to be gibberish. |
|||
Within the DNA base-pair sequences of which the algorithm is composed, blank areas marked with dashes form the image of the mysterious [[The Symbol|symbol]]. |
|||
In his father's office at [[Chennai University]], Mohinder discovers the algorithm scrolling across the computer screen. |
|||
In the episode [[Episode:Homecoming|Homecoming]], as the algorithm is still scrolling on the computer screen, the prompt "Do You Want to Quit?" appears. Ultimately, Mohinder selects "No", and is asked for a password. After a few tries, he enters "Shanti", his dead [[Shanti Suresh|sister's]] name. At once, the algorithm vanishes, and is replaced by a [[The List|list]] of identified evolved humans. |

The entire algorithm seems to be made up of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_pair DNA pase pairs]; namely (A) adenine, (T) thymine, (C) cytosine, and (G) guanine, with dashes (-) standing in for missing sequences. |
