1. trial-and-error

   Trial-and-error is a method of problem-solving where multiple attempts are made to reach a solution until success is achieved. It involves various attempts that are tested and refined until an effective solution is found. This method includes learning from mistakes and failures, adapting one's approach based on these experiences, and trying again until a successful outcome is achieved. It is often used when other, more systematic and structured methods are not available or feasible.
