I want algorithm to NOT show the number in caption. How can i do that? Below is the code:
\begin{algorithm}
\begin{algorithmic}
\caption{ My Algorithm}
\IF
\ELSE
\end{algorithmic}
\end{algorithm}
Please let me know.

If I understand your question correctly, you could use the \caption* command from the caption package to typeset the caption without label; a little example:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{caption}
\usepackage{algorithm}
\usepackage{algpseudocode}
\begin{document}
\begin{algorithm}
\caption{A test algorithm (Part I)}
\begin{algorithmic}[1]
\Procedure {BellmanKalaba}{$G$, $u$, $l$, $p$}
\ForAll {$v \in V(G)$}
\State $l(v) \leftarrow \infty$
\EndFor
\algstore{bkbreak}
\end{algorithmic}
\end{algorithm}
\begin{algorithm}
\caption*{A test algorithm (Part II)}
\begin{algorithmic}[1]
\algrestore{bkbreak}
\State $p(i) \leftarrow v_j$
\State $l’(i) \leftarrow min$
\State $changed \leftarrow l \not= l’$
\EndProcedure
\end{algorithmic}
\end{algorithm}
\end{document}
You could just force the counter associated with that environment.
Note that, in typical LaTeX fashion, counters are incremented just before they're used. So, in order to force the algorithm to start as Algorithm 3 (say), one would set the associated counter to 2. The counter used by algorithm2e for the algorithm environment is algocf (named after the author, Christophe Fiorio, I presume). So, using
\setcounter{algocf}{2}
immediately before using the algorithm environment would set the following algorithm as Algorithm 3.
The following example is taken from the algorithm2e documentation:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[ruled]{algorithm2e}% http://ctan.org/pkg/algorithm2e
\begin{document}
\setcounter{algocf}{2}% Modify counter of algorithm
\begin{algorithm}
\DontPrintSemicolon
\KwData{$G=(X,U)$ such that $G^{tc}$ is an order.}
\KwResult{$G’=(X,V)$ with $V\subseteq U$ such that $G’^{tc}$ is an
interval order.}
\Begin{
$V \longleftarrow U$\;
$S \longleftarrow \emptyset$\;
\For{$x\in X$}{
$NbSuccInS(x) \longleftarrow 0$\;
$NbPredInMin(x) \longleftarrow 0$\;
$NbPredNotInMin(x) \longleftarrow |ImPred(x)|$\;
}
\For{$x \in X$}{
\If{$NbPredInMin(x) = 0$ {\bf and} $NbPredNotInMin(x) = 0$}{
$AppendToMin(x)$}
}
\nl\While{$S \neq \emptyset$}{\label{InRes1}
\nlset{REM} remove $x$ from the list of $T$ of maximal index\;\label{InResR}
\lnl{InRes2}\While{$|S \cap ImSucc(x)| \neq |S|$}{
\For{$ y \in S-ImSucc(x)$}{
\{ remove from $V$ all the arcs $zy$ : \}\;
\For{$z \in ImPred(y) \cap Min$}{
remove the arc $zy$ from $V$\;
$NbSuccInS(z) \longleftarrow NbSuccInS(z) - 1$\;
move $z$ in $T$ to the list preceding its present list\;
\{i.e. If $z \in T[k]$, move $z$ from $T[k]$ to
$T[k-1]$\}\;
}
$NbPredInMin(y) \longleftarrow 0$\;
$NbPredNotInMin(y) \longleftarrow 0$\;
$S \longleftarrow S - \{y\}$\;
$AppendToMin(y)$\;
}
}
$RemoveFromMin(x)$\;
}
}
\caption{IntervalRestriction\label{IR}}

If this is for just one
algorithmenvironment, you can locally redefine\thealgorithm:If you want this to be the global behaviour, you can add
to the preamble.
Another option is to use the caption package and declare a new label format for algorithms, suppressing the numbering:
