WELL DEFINED vs ILL POSED PROBLEMS (TA taught this lesson and it sounded like he got a lot of his material from the book)
Ill posed problem involves the ambiguity of solving certain problems.
Well-defined Problem
Intial state is where you begin. Like hunger before a meal. Then you move on to your goal state and finally to the subgoals state. The final state is also known as an operator.
Ill-posed Problem
Basically what makes a problem ill-posed is that there are no steps to reach your goal. There are no set criteria to solve the problem. You can come up with different ideas on how to solve the problem but really there are an infinite number of ways to solve the problem.
TYPES OF THINKING
There are two types of thinking; directed and undirected thinking. Directed thinking is anything where we have a goal in our mind and we work towards that. Undirected thinking is the opposite of that, it is more daydreaming and artistic thinking. Another two types include reproductive and productive thinking. Reproductive thinking is using past knowledge to solve your new problem and productive thinking would be a completely novel idea (even though that doesn't really exist).
ALGORITHM vs HEURISTICS
Algorithms use a trial and error systematic search. Heuristics work backwards using analogies and finding a means end analysis.
