&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Problem solving&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; refers to the process of finding solutions to difficult or complex issues. It is a mental process in [[psychology]] and a computerized process in [[computer science]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Definition ==&lt;br /&gt;
The term &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;problem solving&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; means slightly different things depending on the discipline. For instance, it is a mental process in psychology and a computerized process in computer science. There are two different types of problems: ill-defined and well-defined; different approaches are used for each.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Problem-solving strategies ==&lt;br /&gt;
There are many problem-solving strategies, including trial and error, difference reduction, means-ends analysis, working backwards, analogies, and [[heuristics]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Problem-solving techniques ==&lt;br /&gt;
Various techniques are used in problem-solving, including [[brainstorming]], [[genetic algorithms]], [[crowdsourcing]], [[insight]], and [[lateral thinking]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Problem-solving in psychology ==&lt;br /&gt;
In psychology, problem-solving is linked to the concept of &amp;quot;[[intelligence]]&amp;quot;. Means-ends analysis, analogies, and forming subgoals are also used in problem-solving in psychology.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Problem-solving in computer science ==&lt;br /&gt;
In computer science, problem-solving is part of a larger process that encompasses problem determination, de-duplication, analysis, diagnosis, repair, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Problem-solving in mathematics and physics ==&lt;br /&gt;
In mathematics and physics, problem-solving is used to develop new theories and to test existing ones.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Problem-solving in management and organizations ==&lt;br /&gt;
In management and organizations, problem-solving is used to identify and solve problems in order to improve performance and productivity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Problem-solving in education ==&lt;br /&gt;
