Front

Object-oriented programming emphasizes encapsulation and modularity.

Back

This helps in organizing code into manageable sections.

Logic programming is beneficial for artificial intelligence and expert systems.

Back

It allows for reasoning and problem-solving capabilities.

Diagram of an Expert System

Back

An expert system consists of an inference engine and a knowledge base, which together help in drawing conclusions.

Front

Reasonable Time Frame

Back

A key aspect of heuristics, ensuring solutions are found quickly enough to be useful.

Front

Approximate Solution

Back

A solution that may not be exact but is close enough to be useful, often used in heuristic methods.
