Robots and computers from its primitive days to even right now are being programmed to do a set of activities. These activities can be very large. Hence, to develop complex programs, there is a need for a lot of software engineers who work day and night to achieve a certain functionality. This is workable when the problem is well defined. But what about situations when the problem is also way complex?
Learning is something that has made us humans what we are. Our experiences molded us to adapt to situations in a better and a more efficient way. Every time we do something, we know more. This makes us better at doing that task over a period of time. It is said practice makes a man perfect, and it is learning through doing things again and again that makes us better.
