Problem-Solving Fundamentals 🧠

Introduction

Problem-solving is a critical skill in programming and software development. It involves identifying issues, analyzing their root causes, and implementing effective solutions. Whether you're debugging code or designing a new system, mastering this process is essential.

Core Principles

• Decomposition: Break down complex problems into smaller, manageable parts.

Practical Steps

1. Define the Problem
   Clearly articulate what needs to be solved.
2. Analyze & Research
   Gather information and identify patterns.
3. Develop a Plan
   Outline steps and potential obstacles.
4. Implement & Test
   Execute the solution and validate results.
5. Iterate & Improve
   Refine your approach based on feedback.

Tools & Techniques

• Use diagrams to visualize workflows.
