Morphology
The noun phrase is compositionally built from 'algorithmic' (involving defined steps) + 'rule' (a guiding principle), so its meaning — a rule defined by an algorithm or step‑by‑step procedure — is directly derivable from the constituents. This adjective+noun combination is a productive, cross‑linguistic pattern, so a B1 learner who knows both words would reliably infer the intended meaning.
Etymology
Algorithmic rule comes from the image of a clear recipe or map that gives exact steps. The words algorithmic and rule show this: algorithmic means 'step-by-step' and rule means a fixed instruction, so the phrase means 'a step-by-step method to solve a problem'.
