Problem Solving
Problem Solving is a foundations skill in AI & Data. Break a problem into inputs, steps, and outputs, then test and improve a logical solution. In a FUTEAC roadmap it takes about 6 hours of focused learning, and the free Roadmap Generator places it in the right week of your personal plan, after its prerequisites, at the pace you choose.
